Closing the path to any subfolder

In a red box:

How to write the correct syntax for the following line to open file access to Desktop folder but at the same time close the paths to any subfolder:

Code:

OpenFilePath=D:\Desktop

 

Code:

OpenFilePath=D:\Desktop\
ClosedFilePath=D:\Desktop\*\*

 

Thank you @busy

 

Based on this configuration

Code:

OpenFilePath=D:\Desktop\
ClosedFilePath=D:\Desktop\*\*

Is the following line possible to use to only read the contents (lots of subfolders and files after the asterisk symbol)?

Code:

NormalFilePath=D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\FolderC\*

 

yea should work and remember to enable rule specificity

 

Well, it didn't work. Opening of FolderA is blocked as per rule ClosedFilePath=D:\Desktop\*\*

Code:

OpenFilePath=D:\Desktop\
ClosedFilePath=D:\Desktop\*\*
NormalFilePath=D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\FolderC\*
UseRuleSpecificity=y

 

how did you test it?
also try replacing ClosedFilePath with WriteFilePath

 

I run a chrome profile (chrome installed not portable) > click on Search by image > upload a file > File explorer is blocked when I attempt to open FolderA

Same thing.

Code:

OpenFilePath=D:\Desktop\
ClosedFilePath=D:\Desktop\*\*
WriteFilePath=D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\FolderC\*
UseRuleSpecificity=y

 

@Mr.X Try this:

Code:

UseRuleSpecificity=y
WriteFilePath=D:\
OpenFilePath=D:\Desktop\
WriteFilePath=D:\Desktop\*\*
NormalFilePath=|D:\Desktop\FolderA\
WriteFilePath=D:\Desktop\FolderA\
NormalFilePath=|D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\
WriteFilePath=D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\
NormalFilePath=|D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\FolderC\
NormalFilePath=D:\Desktop\FolderA\FolderB\FolderC\

 

You're a genius @busy , it worked out perfectly
Would you care to explain all you did here so I can hopefully use those lines in other scenarios?
Thanks a lot, in advance.

PS: I don't want to seem ungrateful @busy , believe me, I am not. It's just I think there are too many lines one have to write down just to get access to only four subfolders starting from the drive's root.

@DavidXanatos
Do you think a solution is possible?

 

I'm always fascinated at how busy works his magic. Is there some place that explains what these commands/rules do? Like 'UseRuleSpecificity' and what the pipes do.

 

@DavidXanatos
Do you think a solution is possible?
I mean a fix to use just one line instead of multiple lines.
The line might have different symbols for different functions.

 

I'll look into it, one line certainly not but ideally we could be able to achieve that in 2 lines, although it may require som fixing lets see...
