  To make an exception for your cryptocurrency wallet in Avast, you can follow these steps: 1. Open the Avast antivirus software on your computer. 2. Go to the settings or preferences section. 3. Look for the 'Exclusions' or 'Exceptions' tab. 4. Add your cryptocurrency wallet's installation folder or executable file to the list of exclusions. 5. Save the changes and restart your computer. By adding your cryptocurrency wallet to the exclusions list, Avast will no longer block it and you should be able to use it without any issues. Remember to exercise caution when adding exclusions, as it may potentially expose your computer to security risks if the excluded file or folder is malicious.
