I don't know if this will help fill a gap. I don't use Windows.

Steps 1 to 7 of the linked web page show how create an empty file in a
folder of your choice. The file name in the example after completing
step 7 would be "Sample.txt" if you don't change the name of the newly
created file.

That name is what you would put into the "Skip Sentinel Filename" in the
settings for "My Music". You would create an empty file with this name
in each sub-folder that you wish to exclude from scanning. The method is
good for excluding sub-folders from a scan.

To validate, setting the log level of "Media & Playlist Folder Scanning"
to "info"  will produce entries in the log in the form "Skipping
FOLDERNAME".
