# Antivirus Exclusions

On the 2PXE Server, it is recommended that antivirus real-time-scanning exclusions be put in place to not interrupt the handling of files and operations. Exclusions should be made by excluding both specific folder locations which store service executables and database files **and** by excluding specific processes.

**Process to Exclude :**\
2Pint.2pxe.Service

**Folder to Exclude for the 2PXE Program Files:**\
\<Installation Dir>\2Pint Software\2PXE\
**Folder to Exclude for ProgramData:**\
C:\ProgramData\2Pint Software\2PXE
