How can I exclude multiple folders from search in linux?

How can I exclude multiple folders from search in linux? In the folder "home/Stand" i use the command to search:

i use the command to search:

find ./ -name "fesb-6.2.1.1.tar.gz"

I am getting a lot of results from unnecessary folders in this directory, how can I exclude multiple folders from search?

find ./ -name fesb-6.2.1.1.tar.gz -not -path "6.2.1-pbo" did not work

Give a try, it should work:

find ./ -name fesb-6.2.1.1.tar.gz ! -path '*6.2.1-pbo*'
