I want to develop (write, compile, debug) C/C++ code using the MingW compiler toolkit. Comodo Inter Security in default mode is detecting the executables (very simple C/C++ tutorial codes for novices) as malwares and starting defensive mechanisms.
Few have proposed a solution of disabling the Comodo Internet Security while sotware development. I disagree because while developing, I need to search Google, StackOverflow and others for help, and I don't think going online without Comodo Internet Security enabled is a wise idea.
Please help me device a method. In broad sense, I have heard that I need to whitelist the MingW compiler toolkit exe files. Unfortunately, there are as many as 59 files inside it.
Can someone guide me in details i.e I mean which module and which menu option to change.
Thanking you in advance.

should be the option to exclude folder or put a folder in white list .. you should save all your projects.
pd: Most detect files created as malware, I spend a lot when doing simple projects in java,
