Have you tried setting an excluded zone and include your whole SMB share in it

Did an exclude zone ever worked ? I remember having to turn off the antivirus because it will happilly ignore my exclude zone (10 years ago)

This is my experience as well, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not but exclusions never seem to work, at least when Windows is convinced it has found a severe threat. I have to completely disable Real Time Protection.
