|
15 | 16 | If you are using Microsoft Defender, it is recommended to add the app folder to the Microsoft Defender exclusions after loading an app: |

| 19 | + |
| 20 | +If you are using a different antivirus solution, refer to your antivirus documentation for instructions on how to add exclusions. Make sure to exclude the app folder to prevent performance issues: |

20 | 25 |
|
21 | 26 | {{% alert color="info" %}} |
22 | 27 | This operation must be performed with administrator privileges. |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +Add your app folder, or the folder containing all your apps, to the list of exclusions for your antivirus software. Only do this with app directories you trust. Do not add *studiopro.exe* itself to the ignored processes. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +Studio Pro uses different tools and subprocesses that are not covered if you only add Studio Pro to the list of exceptions for virus scanning, which is why it is best to mark the app directory for exclusion. |
