The Excluded Files Manager is used to manage which files and directories are excluded from scanning. It is accessed by selecting File > Manage Excluded Files, or by clicking on the 
button.
Any files or directories already excluded will be shown in the Exclusions List. You can Add a file/directory to this list, and you can Edit or Remove an existing entry.
Adding a Directory/File to be Excluded
Files are normally added to the Excluded Files list when a User selects the option to Exclude a file from scanning during one of Trojan Remover's normal scanning routines. Using the Excluded Files Manager you can manually add files and directories to be excluded by Trojan Remover's scans.
Click on the Add button. An Edit Window will appear. Here you can manually type in the file/directory to exclude (ensure you type in the FULL path to the file/directory). Alternatively, you can click on the 
button. This will open up an Explorer-type Window to allow you to browse for the file/directory you wish to add to the Excluded Files List. If you choose to add a directory, ALL sub-directories of that directory will ALSO be excluded from scanning.
Editing an Existing Item in the Excluded Files List
Select the item you wish to edit by clicking on it once with the mouse, to highlight it. The Edit button will be enabled. Click on the Edit button. This will open an Edit Window and allow you to make your changes. Pressing OK on the Edit Window will temporarily save the changes you have made. The changes will become permanent only when you click OK on the Excluded Files Manager screen.
Removing an Item from the Excluded Files List
Select the item(s) you wish to remove by clicking on it with the mouse, to highlight it. Multiple items can be selected by holding down the Ctrl button and clicking on each item you wish to remove in turn. The Remove button will be enabled. Click on the Remove button to remove the item(s). When you click on the OK button on the Excluded Files Manager screen, the item(s) are permanently removed from the Excluded Files List, meaning that these items WILL now be included during Trojan Remover's Active and Drive/Directory scans.
Any changes you make in the Excluded Files Manager will NOT be saved unless you click on the OK button (this button is disabled if you have made no changes). If you click on the Cancel button, any changes you have made will be discarded, and no changes will be made to the Excluded Files List.
Any items shown in the Excluded Files List will automatically be excluded from Active and Drive/Directory Scans. However, if the item is a file, it CAN be scanned if you locate the file, right-click on it, and select "Scan with Trojan Remover".
