Has anyone bothered setting up exclusions for Kaspersky (Total Security in my case)?
I have Windows Updates disabled, and don't desire to routinely update anything besides KTS.
It would be nice not to have to manually commit changes every time KTS updates, so I rather utilize the SD exclusions.
I installed KTS using Total Uninstall, which generated a nice detailed list of all the file and registry locations.
Adding all the file exclusions was pretty easy, but there are a ton of registry entries that I am not so enthusiastic about manually adding.
I wonder if there are a couple registry entries that are necessary to allow KTS to update, and if the large majority of them are 'stationary'.
As for the registry entries, they are quite extensive, so I will not list them here. It took me about 5-10 minutes to add all the file exclusions, but I imagine adding all the registry exclusions would take several hours.
Maybe I could wait until the next KTS update, and log it with Total Uninstall to see which registry keys are changed, and go from there.
Thought I would post this here, incase I am not the only one interested in this.
(The faded out entries are from Kaspersky VPN, that I have since uninstalled)
