    Excluding a .exe process - No file chooser: What to put in the "Name" field?

    When you exclude a file, what exactly does it do? Does it exclude the file just from being scanned? Or also exclude any processes from the files excluded? That is, does excluding an exe file, also exclude that exe as a process?

    Please do the following and upload the respective logs.

    1)

    2)

    Download defender_diag.bat. Right-click on the file, click Properties, Unblock, and OK. Run the batch file as administrator.

    The Batch file queries Defender-related settings/Policies and outputs the results to a log file. Upload this log to your OneDrive and share the link here.

    How can prevent svchost.exe and wscript.exe to be excluded from windows defender?

    Microsoft Defender flags the VB.net EXE for HackTool:Win32/AutoKMS

    The best option is to upload a sample of that exe file to the Defender Team on the link below (click Software Developer), so they can analyse the code in the exe and add it to the safe file list in Defender AV:
