Notes
  • Peer Software is not aware of any risk in excluding these processes from your anti-malware or audit software.

  • Performance and operating system reliability problems may occur because of file locking by anti-malware and audit software if these processes are not excluded.

  • Refer to your anti-malware or audit vendor's documentation for instructions on excluding processes.
