You mean support of excluding specific folders? I think it is already
supported, if you choose Scan Options > Full System, you are able browser
and individually select specific folders for scanning.

Yes, you can choose folders to scan. But that is not an Exclusion. Exclusion
is not yet available. Would be handy to allow scanning from the root of all
drives, and then be able to "exclude" specific files/folders from that full
root scan. Hopefully something for Beta 2.

I'd also like to see exclusions. For example, I would
like to exclude the RealVNC executable (and all related
8+ trigging entries) from all future scans. I guess it
could be an option in the dropdown to "Permenantly
Ignore".

Yes, you are correct. Just use the drop down after a completed scan to
"always ignore" proper applications such as VNC. I too use VNC and have them
set to "Always Ignore"

Though would still be nice to pre-exclude specific files and directories.
Especially during beta testing. And when there is cookie scanning, also
the option for whitelist/blacklist cookies.
