[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 808442, member: 32260"] There are several types of WD exclusions by: extension, path, process, temporary path. This feature is not well implemented in WD. If one clear the history of threats, then the only way to see exclusions is looking at the subkeys of the registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Exclusions or using PowerShell cmdlet: (get-mppreference).ExclusionPath (get-mppreference).ExclusionExtension (get-mppreference).ExclusionProcess Those exclusions can be also removed by using the PowerShell cmdlet Remove-MpPreference. But I did not find the commands to see or remove the temporary path exclusions in PowerShell. Edit. It seems that temporary path exclusions can be deleted after booting to Windows recovery cmd (advanced startup options - command prompt): [URL unfurl="true"]https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/protect/forum/all/windows-defender-how-to-remove-exclusions/2a0cc465-97b2-46ea-ae77-b87075ed124e[/URL] [/QUOTE]
