Archeage

Options


Hi,


I play a game called Archeage and it creates some temporary files in the documents folder.  I cannot change this behaviour and hence need a way to add the game to the ignore list.  But even after I add it to the exclude list I am not able to run the game properly.  Is there any way I can turn off the ransomware protection and still maintain my Bitdefender status as protected i.e. all green.

    sudito:


    From what I can tell, the settings for Active Threat Defense apply to both ATD and Ransomware Protection.  I did not see a way to whitelist apps for just the Ransomware Module.


    Perhaps I am missing something ... ?


    Have a great day.

    No they are separate....in the safe files component -> aplication access.


    PS:Try adding the exclusion there also.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me.  Indeed, I do have some programs listed there.  It is kind of odd that you can't do that from within the Ransomware Protection module itself.


    Always learning.  Thank you again.  Have a great weekend, and sorry for spelling your name incorrectly in my previous post. :(
