Feature Request: allow malware path exceptions for Windows Failover cluster volumes

Post by afranklin »

Hello, I'd like to make a feature request.

When Windows Failover Cluster volumes are backed up the path looks like this in the malware detection logs:

\\?\Volume{ae3f23d9-a54b-4a3b-8d28-a532d08c52cd}\Data\Corp\IS\Shared\byron-move\is_misc\old_Comm\POPULAR.PCS

This UNC style path is not allowed in the malware exceptions. The only way to exclude in this situation is with file extensions. When only one file is causing false alerts this is overkill and opens up a larger hole than necessary.
