Antivirus exclusions

Windows has a built-in antivirus, but it is common for people to use third-party security software too.

Use Microsoft Defender

We recommend using the built-in Microsoft Defender for Windows. This is what we use ourselves, making it less likely to falsely detect a virus in your Shine Forms files.

Sometimes, third-party software can incorrectly detect Shine Forms or our data files as a threat and delete or block them from running.

To fix that, exclude the following folder from your antivirus software:

%AppData%\Roaming\Pirform\Pirform\

Also exclude the following process:

pirform.exe
