You can use this dialog to configure which drives or folders should be searched. Even complex paths and URLs can be put together with just a few clicks.

All available search locations are listed on the left-hand side of the dialog. To the right, the directory to be searched in the currently selected search location can be specified and, in the case of cloud/remote targets, the access data for the connection can also be entered there. The currently selected path is displayed in the input field at the bottom of the dialog.
