Adding entire folder to windows defender exclusion

Sun Mar 10, 2024 5:18 am

Hello,
Is it possible to add the APPDIR to the windows defender exclusion list?

I am running this custom PowerShellScriptInline:

Code: Select all

Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath [APPDIR]
But it just doesn't work it adds APPDIR only instead of the path, any suggestions? Not so good with powershell
