Exclusion of applications or Folders.

Capbat · October 2013

Hi All

Is it possible to exclude a folder or an application from being scanned by the FSecure antivirus.

I am using a game Flight simulator and the advice I get is that the execution of the software could be faster if it is not scanned during it's execution.

Thanks.

Hi Capbat

welcome to the Forum.

Take a look here for excluding the Games folder directly; http://community.f-secure.com/t5/Security-for-PC/How-do-I-exclude-a-file-or/ta-p/15398

But you cannot exclude an application directly; http://community.f-secure.com/t5/Security-for-PC/How-can-I-exclude-an-application/ta-p/15400

There is also a Gaming Mode; I am running the Internet Security which has this feature. Not sure if the Antivirus has this setting though.

Let us know how you get on and good gaming.

Thanks Blackcat

I have just implemented your suggestions. Don't know if it will make a significant improvment of performance but will see.
