# Ignore List tab

Gemini’s Ignore List includes files, folders, and file extensions you have chosen to avoid while scanning.

Add items to the Ignore List

Add files and folders: Switch to the Files and Folders section and click Add (+). Navigate to an item you want to exclude from scan results and click Open.

Add a group of extensions: Switch to the Extensions section and click Add (+). As soon as a new line for a group of extensions is added, enter file extensions separated by a comma.

Add items to the Ignore List from Gemini’s main interface: Control-click on a desired item among Gemini’s detailed scan results and choose the corresponding option.

Remove items from the Ignore List: Click (-) or press Backspace on an item you no longer need to be ignored by Gemini’s scans.

Stop ignoring items during scan but keep them available on the Ignore List tab: Deselect the corresponding checkbox next to an ignored item so that it remains listed, but gets scanned by Gemini.

Return to the default Ignore List settings: Click Restore Defaults.
