Excludes 123', searching will not yield any results, since you have excluded the only

Includes – Excludes
Use this tool to include specific PDF files or folders in the index file or to exclude
them from it. Use the right panel in the Build Index dialog to locate the PDF, highlight
it, then click Includes or Excludes next to it, depending on your purpose. All included
and excluded files and folders display on the left of the Build Index panel.
For example, if you have a folder entitled PDF Documents with 22 PDF files (from
Doc01.pdf to Doc22.pdf), but you want to include only the first 20 in the index file,
include the folder, then exclude the files Doc21.pdf and Doc22.pdf.
When you have composed your index file, click Build to create it. If you want to
refresh it any time, make your modifications and click Rebuild.
Important note: Save the index file (.zpi) into the folder that hosts the PDF files that
you have added to the archive. Indexes also create their own filesets during building.
The folder that contains them must also stay in its place of creation.
However, you can move the whole archive together (.zpi file, index subfolder and
PDF files) to a different location on your machine.
