How to Keep Section Numbering but Not Include in Table of Contents

Question

I would like have sections in the appendix numbered but not appearing in the table of contents.

If I use the \section command then the section is numbered and appears in the table of contents. If I use the \section* command, then the section is removed from the table of contents but also the numbering is removed. How I can keep the numbering?

Just add the following code after \section{}

\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\setcounter{tocdepth}{-1}}

If you want the next chapter to be included in the TOC you just paste this code after this command and set the counter to 1
