How to add Kryptex to BitDefender antivirus exclusion?

Aug. 31, 2023, 1:05 p.m.

Many antivirus programs can disrupt the correct functioning of the Kryptex App. To ensure that your antivirus doesn't hinder Kryptex's operation, you should exempt Kryptex files from being scanned by the antivirus software.

It's advisable not to include the entire folder, as this could prevent the antivirus from offering protection if a virus enters the miner folder. Instead, selectively add individual Kryptex files to the exclusions list rather than excluding entire folders.

Add Kryptex to BitDefender exclusion

  1. Select “Protection” from the navigation menu of the Bitdefender interface.
  2. On the "Antivirus" panel, click "Open".

  3. Then go to the "Settings" tab of the "Antivirus" panel and click "Manage exceptions".

  4. Then click the “Add Exception” button.

  5. Specify the paths for exclusion:

    • C:\Program Files\Kryptex\Kryptex.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners.7z
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_gminer\kryptex_gminer.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_lolMiner\kryptex_lolMiner.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_nbminer\kryptex_nbminer.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_PhoenixMiner\kryptex_PhoenixMiner.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_rigel\kryptex_rigel.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_SRBMiner-MULTI\kryptex_SRBMiner-MULTI.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_teamredminer\kryptex_teamredminer.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_t-rex\kryptex_t-rex.exe
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Kryptex\miners\kryptex_xmrig\kryptex_xmrig.exe

      <username> — replace with your Windows user name.
