# Norton
First let's add the exception to the Norton Antivirus:
Open Norton then go to "Settings"-> "Scans and Risks" and scroll down to "Exclusions/Low risks":
At "Items to Exclude from Scans", click on "Configure"->"Add Files":
Add an exception for the **RMLLauncher.exe** you downloaded:
As well as for the **HMLCore.exe** located in **C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\RaftModLoader .**
Then click on "Add Folders" to add an exception for the entire **RaftModLoader** folder located at **C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\RaftModLoader .**
This is what your exceptions should look like. Confirm by hitting "Apply" then "Ok":
Now add the exact same exceptions for "Items to Exclude from Auto-Protect, Script Control, Behavioral Protection and Download Intelligence Detection":
After you're done hit "Apply" and then "Ok":
If the Raft Mod Loader can't connect to the internet, you'll need to add an exception to your firewall too:
1. Go to **Settings** -> **Firewall** -> **Application Control**
2. Use the search function to find **`HML`**
3. Allow network access for **`HML`**
Finally restart the computer to apply the settings!
## Aaaand you're done !
**Simply restart our launcher and it should be working !** :thumbsup:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://api.raftmodding.com/getting-started/installing-raft-mod-loader/configuring-your-antivirus/norton.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
