A couple of years ago I asked in this community for a solution. My problem was: I have a folder with only master-photo's (.dng, .arw and .tiff-files) and another folder with only .jpg-files as versions. Each dng-file should have a .jpg-version. 
My problem was: how to make a formula-driven category to collect all .dng-/.arw-/ .tif-Masters without a .jpg-Version. 

Someone wrote a formula for me, good working for a long time. After the last great upgrade the formula doesn't work anymore. I do not understand why not. Can anybody help me to make the formula working? 
This is the formula:

"@RFolder[file://D:/Originelen/]" NOT "@RFolder[file://D:/Originelen/Org_Bern.-expo's en atelier/]" AND ("@FileRegExp[\.dng$]" OR "@FileRegExp[\.tif$]" OR "@FileRegExp[\.arw$]") NOT "@Collection[Relations|Master]"

thank you in advance

Filtering for file properties Hide masters and Hide versions doesn't do it for you?

At least this part (without the restriction on folders which is of course specific to your folder layout) works for me as expected. It shows DNG/TIF/ARW files that are not masters.

Maybe check that your Relation rules are still correct. The files that should appear in your category should be no masters, therefore I would pick a file that should be in the category, then check in VarToy if {File.Relations} shows some Master relation. Expected outcome is that there is no Master relation.
