Previously detected exploit list always empty

[quest_for_knowledge]

I get many warnings about blocked websites etc but I'm forced to try and memorise them or screenshot in order to add exclusions to malwarebytes. I click on previously detected exploits and the list is always empty.

Using malwarebytes 3.3.1 on latest version of windows with Avast antivirus.

TIA

Hello!

It sounds like you're looking in the Exclusions area of Settings.  What you really want to do is view the Reports - just click Reports on left-hand side navigation.  This is the easiest way to access all previous real-time block events and scan reports.  You can sort by date to see the most recent events.

Each real-time block event report contains all the information you would need to enter an exclusion if you are certain the website (or program, etc.) is safe.

More detail can be found here:

Hope that helps!

The initial question still stands and is not answered. Why is the list of detected exploits always empty, making it, therefore, impossible, to select items to be excluded.

It is impossible to copy anything from reports, and no option for exclusion is offered there. Do you suggest to export the report to text format and then manually copy every single path to exclude it?   If that is your suggestion, why is the option of (empty) list of exploits offered as a way to exclusions? 

The problem started after the last update and it looks like a bug.  

Thank you for your clarification.

In Reports, after you select a dated report, it shows the report in a new window and at the bottom left there is an option to EXPORT. Doing an export you have the option of copying the report with the shown exploit to the clipboard, or to a text file. Then you could copy/paste or have something to view on paper.

thank you, but our question is about the path of selecting previous detections for exclusion, built in the option of "add exclusion", where the list that needs to contain all the previous exclusions appear empty and no selection is possible.
