# FolderMustHaveRegex

A regular expression to restrict the folders that are processed.

Folders with paths that match the regular expression are processed.

Folders with paths that do not match the regular expression are excluded. If a folder is excluded by this parameter, its subfolders are not excluded unless they also have paths that do not match the regular expression.

To exclude a large number of folders, consider using `FolderMustHaveRegexToCrawl`.

Type: | Regular Expression

    FolderMustHaveRegex=^//Top of Information Store/Inbox/Folder$
