The Exclusions tab is a subsection of the Malwarebytes AdwCleaner’s Settings screen. Exclusions allows you to exclude, or allow, items that you do not want AdwCleaner to scan. This article provides an overview of Exclusions, and how to exclude items from AdwCleaner scans.

Add or remove items from AdwCleaner Exclusions

The Exclusions tab allows you to exclude items from AdwCleaner scans. You can exclude the following elements:

  • Files
  • Folders
  • Registry Keys
  • Registry Values
  • Services
  • URLs
  • Processes
  • Detection Families

Excluding an element means that AdwCleaner will not scan or quarantine it. To add an exclusion:

  1. Open AdwCleaner.
  2. Click on Settings, then click Exclusions.
