12.2.1.3. Exceptions
With these options you can configure exception objects for the Guard (on-access scan).
The relevant objects are then not included in the on-access scan. The Guard can ignore
file accesses to these objects during the on-access scan via the list of processes to be
omitted. This is useful, for example, with databases or back-up solutions.

In this field, enter the name of the process that is to be ignored by the real-time scan. No
process is entered as the default setting.

characters.

scan for viruses and unwanted programs! The Windows Explorer and the operating
