    Does anyone know how to add the action option "Ignore and Add to Exceptions" when there's a false positive during real-time file scanning? It no longer seems to be listed. All I see is Block, Delete, Move to Chest, Fix Automatically.

    Not possible anymore. It's now an intentional feature :mad:

    I'm not sure the detection problems are there when you use the hardened mode since it isn't "default"...just a thought.

    Yeah, when you use Hardened Mode, the rules change significantly. In my experience it's 100% protection when using Aggressive Mode with prety much zero user input. Though you need active internet connection. With moderate, it will work even without it, but if DeepScreen is not even triggered, nothing will get blocked other than by signatures.
