Removing folders from the scope

[Guest]

Hi,

 

I use to work with nodejs projects so I use to have folders with dependencies files (node_modules) inside every project I have.

The problem is that Alfred shows them when I search for anything so I get a lot of noise and is very annoying.

 

Is there any way to remove some folders from the scope?

 

Thanks

 

PS: My projects are inside my home folder.

 

EDIT:

 

Ok, I've just found this threat:

The easiest way to do that is to add the folders to the Spotlight privacy section in System Preferences. That will block the folders from being found in Spotlight/Alfred results at all.
