WindDefenderExcludeDefaults=1 has been optimized as follows:
ExclusionPaths:
+ %ProgramFiles(x86)%\panagenda
+ If MultiUserSharedDataNew is under %ProgramData%: %ProgramData%\HCL\Notes, %ProgramData%\IBM\Notes
+ If NotesProgramDirectoryNew is under %ProgramFiles(x86)%: %ProgramFiles(x86)%\HCL\Notes, %ProgramFiles(x86)%\IBM\Notes
+ If NotesProgramDirectoryNew is under %ProgramFiles%: %ProgramFiles%\HCL\Notes
ExlusionProcesses:
+ %ProgramFiles(x86)%\panagenda\MCUpgrade.exe, %ProgramFiles(x86)%\panagenda\MCUpgradeService.exe
+ If MCUpgrade.exe is executed under %ProgramFiles% or %ProgramFiles(x86)%: Executionfolder\*.exe, Executionfolder\*\*.exe
+ If NotesProgramDirectoryNew is under %ProgramFiles% or %ProgramFiles(x86)%: %MCU_NotesProgramDirectoryNew%\*.exe, %MCU_NotesProgramDirectoryNew%\framework\rcp\eclipse\plugins\*\*\*\*.exe
ExclusionExtensions:
+ .nsf, .ntf, .properties
(as much as we would love to also exclude .xml files, they could contain malware ...)
If WindowsDefender is used, all settings combined reduce upgrade times by 1-3 minutes(!) and considerably improve Notes client performance, for both startup and when running
