Hardened Mode - Exclusions - Magic Tricks
« on: March 11, 2014, 11:22:31 PM »
Ok so when Avast 2014 first came out there were a lot of problems with adding exclusions to hardened mode as once you added them they wouldn't stick (hit ok, come back in to look and they were gone).

Avast released an update and it seemed to solve the problem.

Now, many months later, I just installed a program which required me to hit add exclusion on the pop up I'd say no less than five times...

Once I went in to go delete all the unneeded setup exclusions, not only were they not there, but the exclusions that were in there for months were gone too

Ta Da!!!! Won't see that kind of act in Vegas!

Any ideas?

Harden Mode exclusions still not working in Avast 2014.9.0.2018, Windows 8.1 x64.

The first entry could only be added via Harden Mode popup. Manual entries were not remembered (The executable with poor reputation continued to trigger a Harden Mode popup after selecting 'OK' via GUI)

Subsequent entries were not present regardless of method of exclusion added.

Edit: Tested with Harden Mode Moderate
