I had a soundFX folder with a bunch of files in it, so I wanted to keep just the wav files and delete all the other. Since I don't know any way to exclude a parameter in the finder search I decided to search for wav files and use the put selection in a new folder action. However, since I forgot to select the folder I was in instead of This Mac It searched all the Wav files on the computer and, stupidly enough I didn't noticed it and grouped them all into a folder with no undo option available.

Now, two questions:
1. Is it possible to use the finder search to exclude a parameter(Searching Kind Isn't Audio Instead of Kind Is Audio)?

2. Is it Possible to put the files back in their original location?
