  Absolutely! Adding a cryptocurrency program to the whitelist in Windows Defender is a simple process. First, open Windows Defender and go to the 'Virus & threat protection' settings. From there, click on 'Manage settings' and scroll down to the 'Exclusions' section. Click on 'Add or remove exclusions' and then click on 'Add an exclusion'. Choose the 'Folder' option and navigate to the folder where your cryptocurrency program is installed. Select the folder and click 'OK'. This will add the program to the whitelist, and Windows Defender will no longer flag it as a potential threat.

  Yes, you can add a cryptocurrency program to the whitelist in Windows Defender. To do this, open Windows Defender and go to the 'Virus & threat protection' settings. Under the 'Exclusions' section, click on 'Add or remove exclusions' and then click on 'Add an exclusion'. Choose the 'File' option and navigate to the executable file of your cryptocurrency program. Select the file and click 'OK'. This will exclude the program from Windows Defender's scanning and prevent it from being flagged as a threat.
