Windows 10: Displaying the contents of shadow copy in the explorer

Good day to you all.Came not so much for a solution to the question, but for information, what is the behavior of the system, when in Explorer we open the contents of the snapshot and always see a mirror of the actual contents of this or that object. I can't google the subject properly. Example. We have a partition on the disk and we create a snapshot of such a partition: "wmic shadowcopy call create volume=d:\" Perfect. We have created a snapshot. We go to the "d" partition, in any of the directories. Let's say the directory is empty - it was empty from the beginning - no problem here. Click

Windows Defender incorrectly reports threat in Volume Shadow Copy

I think you misread my question.

I did what you suggest immediately after I first downloaded the file.

The problem is NOT that the file itself gets flagged -- it does not as it is in the exclusions list.

The problem is that the exclusions list applies to the absolute path to the file.

What Windows Defender is complaining about is the COPY of the file that is present in the Volume Shadow Copy, NOT the original file.

There appears to be no way to tell Windows Defender to ignore the COPY of the file in the Volume Shadow Copy. Then, every time my backup program (Retrospect) runs, Windows Defender detects the file IN THE VOLUME SHADOW COPY and complains.
