I'm a software developer doing a relatively straight forward VS C# project. I can debug my project in Visual Studio 2019 just fine, but after compiling the project and reinstalling it to perform alpha testing, Norton 360 insists on blocking the main module, even though I have excluded the specific folders and files containing my executables and resource files!
1. Why is this happening and what can I do, short of turning off Norton altogether?
2. Do I need to re-exclude these files in Norton settings every time I install my project?
Of course I'm under a time-crunch to get this project finished.
Latest Norton 360 v 22.22.2.10
OS: MS Windows 10 Pro (10.0.19045 Build 19045)
System: HP 750-114, X64 based
Processor: Intel Core i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70 GHz, 4 Cores, 4 processors
Total Memory: 16 GB
Nature of project:
- Reads emails from client mail server, downloads Excel attachments,
- Converts each file to Excel 2007+ format as necessary and backs up the file, (this is where the block seems to happen)
- Reads the contents of each file into a calculation module and writes resulting records to a legacy application database.
- Sends clipboard pokes into the legacy application to automatically process the incoming data records.
Thank You.
