How do you stop McAfee from seeing a program as malware

Does anyone know how to make McAfee stop restricting me from opening apps that are safe by saying that they stopped a virus? https://omegle.onl/

Re: How do you stop McAfee from seeing a program as malware

Hi @higol00 

We regret for the inconvenience caused.

McAfee allows you to exclude individual files from being scanned for viruses by the product's Real-Time Scanning feature. When you exclude known, safe files and apps from being scanned, you might see performance improvements as you use your computer.

Kindly refer the below article to exclude files from virus scans on Windows or MAC.
