Windows 10: Windows Defender scan said it skipped something in the exclusion after scan..but nothing is...

Already did sfc /scannow, came clean. No errors in event viewer relating to it. Flushed DNS. Nothing.. is it another bug from a update today?

Windows Defender Antivirus Scan exclusions

If there is anything in Windows Defender Exclusion list, then it won't be scan and if it is malicious program, it won't detect.

It is better to remove all programs from exclusion list (if you didn't add them) and run a full system scan with Windows Defender.

 

Windows Defender Exclusion list

I've tried a full scan. At the end of the scan a notification has came and said that " Scan has been completed, 0 treats found, Windows defender skipped those(showing list) files as your exclusion settings .." Quick scan also says the same.. I'll try for
a clean boot later.
