Antivirus Exclustions & Performance considerations

Hi,

I would like to know what is the guidance on antivirus for Elasticsearch? Which paths should be excluded and with what justification? I am writing about the 7.6.2 version on Windows.

I guess that the data dir should be excluded. And may be the logs dir.
