Location whitelisting (Optional)

Although this is only a remote possibility, ironically WPSecure’s inbuilt Advanced Encryption Algorithms might trigger false-positive notifications from your installed security software, if the AV definitions are corrupted or stale.

To prevent file deletion and service interruption; it is best practice to whitelist the following folder and files within your local Antivirus, Applocker, etc.

  • Add whitelist for the “C:Program Files (x86)wpsecure” (64 bit devices) or “C:Program Fileswpsecure”  (32 bit devices) folder and subfolders.
  • Whitelist the following files in the above location within your Antivirus or applocker products.

wpsecure.exe
wpsecurecheck.exe
wpsecureloader.exe
wpsecureloaderrestart.exe
wpsecureloadersp.exe
wpsecureloaderuninstall.exe
wpsecureevt.exe
wpsecuregi.exe
