Why is it so hard to exclude programs?

ziegeri · July 2017

Hi!

This is getting slightly annoying, even if i exclude folders the stupid program still blocks programs that i am trying to execute.

If I launch an application as an admin, then for **** sake don't cry that it is a virus or other ######. I am perfectly aware what i am trying to do here.

So the question is, why does it still blocks things that i have told it to exclude and told it to recover it every time it tries to block it? Only way to run these things is to turn the protection completely off, which basically makes this protection software completely useless.

And when i check the "blocked applications" window, why is there no button to press which says "Unblock/Exclude/Ignore" or something similar?

So is there anything i can do to tell this software not to mess with me, or is the easiest solution to just uninstall Bitdefender Internet Security 2017?

First of all do you tried this specific method to exclude a specific folder, are you running a trainer.exe file? will be that okay if you can provide us the name of the file itself?

Please refer first on this link. https://www.bitdefender.com/support/how-do-i-exclude-a-folder-from-being-scanned-[bitdefender-windows-8-security]-1067.html

After that you can also do this method. https://www.bitdefender.com/support/how-to-add-antivirus-exclusions-(exceptions)-in-bitdefender-2017-1784.html to double check the exclusion process.

Let me know if you have some questions.
