Description

This policy allows an administrator to specify a list of exclusions for specific ASR rules. Each entry is a name-value pair. The key indicates the rule GUID, and the value is a set of full paths separated by the > character, indicating the exclusions for that particular ASR rule. NOTE: The GUID is a KEY, not a value. Example: KEY: "{75668C1F-73B5-4CF0-BB93-3ECF5DB7C484}" VALUE: "C:\Notepad.exe>c:\regedit.exe>C:\SomeFolder\test.exe"
