Kaspersky free version, exclusions dont work

Ok maybe im stupid and dont know how to do it, but after adding a file/app/folder to exclusion, and confirming that it is indeed excluded, kaspersky still doesnt let me launch it and i get a pop up for a virus/malware, even after disabling protection and antivirus (lol) , my only workaround was to exit kaspersky temporarily.

Any1 with the same issue or any1 who knows how to solve this? I just want to be able to run anything i add to exclusions.
