I know, this a old request, but about me it's always important.

if you want exlude a list of file extension: (based on https://stackoverflow.com/a/19961761/1970301)

var exts = new[] { ".mp3", ".jpg" };



public IEnumerable FilterFiles(string path, params string[] exts) {
    return
        Directory
        .GetFiles(path)
        .Where(file => !exts.Any(x => file.EndsWith(x, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)));
}
