How to add Kryptex to Windows 10 Defender exclusion?
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.
