Why does it block my old games?

Question

I launched Unreal II with great pain on my modern PC, but Avira blocked it! How do I fix it?

Answer 1

Some games are developed in a different way and because of that it's possible that Avire treats them as potential malware. However, I recommend you scan these files, but if you know they're safe, then add them to the Exception list.

Luckily, Avira created a page with detailed instructions on how to achieve this. I recommend you visit the following page to learn how to add the games to the Exclusion list to prevent a possible deletion when Avira's scan is in place.
