Application Whitelisting or Exclusions
We generally recommend whitelisting or excluding Password Boss from your antivirus and backup applications to prevent issues with the application. Common problems we see with Antivirus applications over scanning the Password Boss directories include high CPU utilization on Password Boss.
Local backups created of the application will not be usable to recover Password Boss due to version differences between the backup copy and the last live version actually saved in the Password Boss cloud
Here are the directories to exclude from Antivirus and Backup Programs:
%appdata%\PasswordBoss
%localappdata%\PasswordBoss
%localappdata%\PasswordBoss LLC
%localappdata%\Password Boss LLC
