Hi.
I've removed all my exceptions for miners, and reactivated rootkit shield and anti-exploit shield.
When I tried to start NiceHash the main Nicehashminer.exe got blocked!
Then I added an exception with a wildcard to exclude everything in the Nicehash folder, which includes the subfolders with the miners.
Sadly, lolminer.exe, despite having an exception for all the subfolders containing the mining executables, also still gets blocked and quarantined!
Anti-rootkit / Anti-exploit still straight up ignore exceptions. Only with those shields de-activated can I run the software.
To add to that: I have set all shields to ASK before deleting or quarantining. That too gets ignored. Avast quarantines regardless!
So, to recap; anti-exploit and anti-rootkit shield both still detect lolminer.exe, and even with exceptions quarantine it, ignoring both exceptions and my preferences to ask what to do when finding 'malware'.
That means we're back to where we started; Avast says one thing, but does another :/
