Antivirus exclusions
We're running some simple deploys that keep getting blocked by Avast antivirus. It seems to block different PDQ executables in different directories each time. Don't you have a list of what we should exclude in antivirus?

Hi Jeff,
You will want to exclude the following paths: (%WINDIR% usually = C:\Windows)
%WINDIR%\AdminArsenal
%WINDIR%\PDQDeployRunner
%WINDIR%\PDQInventory-Scanner
Obviously when PDQ products access the Windows directory the ADMIN$ is used. (This is the default share name of the Windows directory)
The bottom two paths are hold-overs from earlier versions of the software. Upgrades will continue to use those old paths until you change them.
Do you have the in a support KB article
