With a typical antivirus program, excluding a folder prevents the AV program from monitoring data that are written to, or read from, the folder.

Excluding a binary or executable file prevents the AV engine monitoring executable during read and write operations.

It is recommended to whitelist all of the processes, files, and folders that are listed below.
