I would copy & paste that question into a Google search where you will see a number of suggestions.

How to use it, step by step. I do not understand anything complicated about it.

Neither did I but there were other links, although I didn't read through them.

Perhaps you should include the type of files you want to exclude in your Google search.

Google can be very helpful but you have to ask it the right questions.
