Antivirus scanning

Absolutely! When it comes to Zerto Virtual Replication, excluding its folders, especially in Program Files, from antivirus scanning on every protected VM is a smart move. Antivirus scans can sometimes interfere with the proper functioning of replication processes. By excluding Zerto folders, you’re essentially telling the antivirus software, “Hands off this critical replication business!”

It helps prevent unnecessary performance hits, potential conflicts, and ensures that Zerto can do its job smoothly without antivirus interruptions. It’s like giving Zerto a clear and secure runway for its data replication flights. Smooth sailing!
