Change the Search to: !lnk !path:$recycle.Bin
Click OK.

From the Search menu, click Add to filters....
Change the Name to: myTrip1
Change the Search to: path:England !path:London

Filters can be activated from the Search menu, Filter bar (View -> Filter bar), right clicking the status bar, filter macro or filter keyboard shortcut.

I recommend enabling View -> Filter bar for this situation.
Right click the filter bar to change the side.



To set the default search: (not required if you use the filters above, but to answer your OP)

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Home tab on the left.
• Set Search to: Custom.
• Set the custom search text.
  For example: !lnk !path:$recycle.Bin
• Click OK.

To set the default filter:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Home tab on the left.
• Set Filter to the Default filter you added above.
• Click OK.

The home search can be opened with Alt + Home or History -> Home.
