          Hi @007fred50

          You can add a file called .nomedia in the folders you wish to exclude from the scan.
          There is no smarter way to achieve something similar to your request.

              You should test it and if it works for you then mark as solved.

                  @007fred50 It works but you must use UT TT to delete gallery data.

                      • UT Tweak tool in the OpenStore.
                      • Search engine apps
                      • Gallery
                      • Delete: choose data only.
