On my computer are some programs that I have written and compiled, but MSE kept finding them and was always wanting to quarantine them, so I added my dev directory to the ignore list. That's fine.
But I run backups at night which use Volume Shadow Copy, and MSE finds my little programs in the shadow copy! I've tried several times to create an exclusion rule, but I haven't hit on the right solution yet. So every time a backup runs, I have to confirm the files to be "allowed".
The items are listed like this:
file:\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy22\dev\myprogram\myprogram.exe
The number always changes in the path, so I had created a filter like this in MSE's Settings under "Excluded files and locations":
file:\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy*\dev\*
But that doesn't seem to work.
Is there a solution?

1Seems like the simplest solution would be to submit a sample to Microsoft so your application stops being flagged altogether. – Ramhound – 2014-11-03T16:49:07.963
Never thought of doing that. I always disable any kind of communication in programs of that nature. – bgmCoder – 2014-11-03T20:48:25.757
I tried that and it didn't have any effect. – bgmCoder – 2014-11-12T16:37:13.247
