Command line

Hello Avast support team,

I want to make exception of bunch of folders where I store some malicious files for further analyses as I’m malware staff on some malware removal forums. I want to know if there is a command that can be executed from the command line because there are many folders, so to be able to put it in a loop to make exception for each directory?

Thanks in advance,
Bobi

No, there’s no such command line tool.
And honestly, the exclusion list isn’t really meant to contain hundreds of items; they’d have to be matched for every scanning operation the engine makes, which could slow things down. I’d suggest to exclude the parent folder if possible (or if the files have a special extension for example, the particular filetype).
