Thank you

Good question.

Lvl (level), when enabled, i.e. >0, automatically sets Subfolders:

And then, based on the number you entered,
it searches for files & directories
from the path you are starting with
plus your specified number of directories, below.

Say you have a directory tree like:
C:\TMP\BRU\df\07\15\

If your Search is: C:\TMP\BRU, & Lvl: 1
C:\TMP\BRU & C:\TMP\BRU\df would be searched for files & folders - but not anything within or below \07\.
(\df\ is 1, your Lvl:, directory below your specified search point)

If your Search is: C:\TMP\BRU\df\, & Lvl:1
C:\TMP\BRU, C:\TMP\BRU\df, & C:\TMP\BRU\df\07 would be searched for files & folders - but not \15\.

If your Search is C:\TMP\BRU, & Lvl: 0 (which effectively "disables" subdirectory search)
only files/directories found in C:\TMP\BRU\ - but not anything in \df\ or below, would be listed.
