Flagging A Folder As Safe

Options

How do I mark an entire folder as safe in Total Security 2013? I know I'm looking right at it and not seeing it...

    Georgia, I read through your answer to my question [and the link you provided] about adding folders.


    The folder I am trying to include is NirSoft's programs [ http://launcher.nirsoft.net/ ]. As you probably know, the Nirlauncher suite is multiple programs. Do I need to individually add each program to the exclusions, and then "create" a rule for each program? That will be, by my count, some 200+ exclusions and rules!


    Is there no way to exclude an entire folder at once?

    Hi Charles,


    If you add the entire folder to the exclusions list, there's no need to also configure processes exclusions. You actually have this option from Settings -> Antivirus -> Exclusions -> Excluded files and folders -> Add -> Browse -> select the folder to be excluded -> Add


    Please post back if you have other questions.
