Problem:
Anti-Virus is interfering or slowing down packaging operations and despite the best-practice being to uninstall all anti-virus from FPC/FPA capture machines, you are unable to do so.
Possible Resolution(s):
If your anti-virus software supports whitelisting a full directory and all subdirectories and files, then you would simply exclude the entire installation path which, by default, is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Liquidware Labs\FlexApp Packaging Automation" on 64-bit machines and "C:\Program Files\Liquidware Labs\FlexApp Packaging Automation" on 32-bit machines.
In addition to this, some anti-virus software have other modules/components that focus more on running process than files that reside on disk. In this case, we may need to exclude specific files. Below is a txt file linked with the list of all relevant files installed with FPA to be considered for exclusion.
