Most Anti-virus programs have a setting where you can exclude certain directories within your workstation. The directories that you'll want to exclude are listed below:

On the Server Workstation:

  • Microsoft Dynamics GP or Great Plains folder
  • SQL folder
  • Shared Drive that contains the Reports.dic or Forms.dic files
  • %TEMP% folder

  • %TEMP% folder

Note

If you have questions on how to set this up, you will want to contact the provider of the Anti-Virus program you are running.
