This means that any Windows Defender exclusions, no matter how you created them, are not applied by Windows Defender ATP. +> Windows Defender Antivirus exclusions don't apply to other Microsoft Defender ATP capabilities, including [endpoint detection and response (EDR)](../microsoft-defender-atp/overview-endpoint-detection-response.md), [attack surface reduction (ASR) rules](../microsoft-defender-atp/attack-surface-reduction.md), and [controlled-folder access](../microsoft-defender-atp/controlled-folders.md). Files that you exclude using the methods described in this article can still trigger EDR alerts and other detections. To exclude files broadly, add them as [custom indicators in Microsoft Defender Security Center](manage-indicators.md). You can exclude certain files from Windows Defender Antivirus scans by modifying exclusion lists.
