    Excluding of applications should prevent HMP.A from injecting its .dll, but it seems that newer versions of HMP.A are injecting it nevertheless which might cause trouble on some systems.
    ("hmpalert!A3 / hmpalert!CVCCP", these are exports from the injected hmpalert.dll which can be seen in the crash report)

    I rather doubt that. MPC-HC is no longer actively developed. There are unofficial builds by clsid at Doom9's forum, but I really doubt we can expect a fix for HMPA crashing MPC-HC.
    And on the HMPA side, earlier, Erik Loman mentioned that MPC-HC uses many weird techniques to play video's and that it cannot be supported.
    But, as also mentioned by Erik, and also by Mark (as pointed out by mood), adding MPC-HC to HMPA exceptions should be sufficient to prevent MPC-HC crashing. However, if adding MPC-HC to HMPA exceptions is not sufficient, then there is an issue. I hope Erik, Mark, or Ronny can offer a solution to that.

    For users having issues with MPC-HC, does using MPC-HC(64-bits) instead make any difference?

    Good question.
    Where I said that on my Windows 7 x64 system with HMPA 723 stable, MPC-HC does not crash if it is added to HMPA's exclusion list, I am talking about MPC-HC.1.7.13.x64 portable.
    I don't know about the MPC-HC 32-bit and installer versions, or the unofficial builds by clsid.

    Uninstalled 734 BETA. No wifi and Windows responds VERY slow once started to desktop. I can see both Norton and Hitmanpro Allert in Taskmanager but no Norton and HitmanPro alert trayicons. Same after several Windows-restarts. After uninstalling 734 BETA no problems, Wifi is ok now and Norton trayicon is back.

    Win10 1709 build 16299.214 x64/Norton Security v22.11.0.104

    Is that with HMPA stable build 729, or with no HMPA at all?
    If that is with no HMPA at all, what happens when you install stable build 729?

    No, I mean, where you said "After uninstalling 734 BETA no problems", is that with no HMPA at all, or with HMPA stable build 729 reinstalled?
    And if that is with no HMPA at all, what happens when you install stable build 729?

    Ah, OK, thanks for clarifying.
    I wonder what build 729 will do, on your system.

    Great, thanks for testing.
    Beta 734, however, seems not so great. Quite a few issues reported by now, some tinkering needed by the developers, so it seems.

    But of course. :)
    However, with some beta we see no issues at all and those are later released as stable, while other beta still need some more work, like this one. But of course that's fine, as it's a beta.

    Hello,
    I am also having similar issue when trying to do a scan with ESET. HMP.A does not generate any alert. ESET just sits there endlessly scanning memory. Completely disabling CredGuard (Credential Theft Protection) solves the issue.
    For the time being, I have completely disabled CredGuard (Credential Theft Protection) in order for the anti-virus/malware scanners that I have to work properly. I will enable and test again later if a new version of HMP.A is released with changes that will solve this issue.

    Just to get that clear - Are you sure you are talking about the latest stable build 729? Or beta build 734?
    (By the way, this is the dedicated beta thread, there's a different thread for the HMPA stable versions.)

    Yeah, I'm stuck on 604 too because of BSODs on W7/XP 32-bit with all later HMPA versions. Not sure when this issue will be resolved due to SOPHOS priorities even though they were able to reproduce the crashes. We are no longer dealing with the Loman brothers like we did before SOPHOS took over. :'(
