How to exclude process memory from scanning

You can exclude process memory from scans. The application does not scan the memory of the specified processes.

You can configure excluding process memory from scans in the command line using the MemScanExcludedProgramPath.item_# option in the general application settings.

You can edit the setting using command line options or a configuration file that contains all general application settings.

MemScanExcludedProgramPath.item_# contains the full path to the process in the local directory. You can use masks to specify the path.

You can use the * (asterisk) character to create a file or directory name mask.

You can indicate a single * character to represent any set of characters (including an empty set) preceding the / character in the file or directory name. For example, /dir/*/file or /dir/*/*/file.

You can indicate two consecutive * characters to represent any set of characters (including an empty set and the / character) in the file or directory name. For example, /dir/**/file*/ or /dir/file**/.

The ** mask can be used only once in a directory name. For example, /dir/**/**/file is an incorrect mask.

You can use a single ? character to represent any one character in the file or directory name.

You can specify several processes to exclude from scanning.
