Drake Accounting®: How do I configure Bitdefender to allow Drake Accounting® to function without interference?

 

Bitdefender allows the exclusion of specific files, folders, or programs from scanning. Drake recommends excluding Drake Accounting® files from Bitdefender to make sure your updates are received smoothly.

To add Drake Accounting® to the Bitdefender exclusions list, complete the following steps:

  • Open Bitdefender and click View Modules:

  • Click the Settings gear to the right of the Antivirus section:

  • Select the Exclusions tab at the top of the window:

  • Click the Add button beside List of files and folders excluded from scanning

  • Click Browse and select the location of the DrakeAccounting20YY folder. Select it and click OK.
    • Verify Both is selected. This will exclude the software from on-access and on-demand scanning. 

  • Click Add to save the changes.
  • Repeat for any other years of Drake Accounting®. If you are finished, close the window.
