The Ignore List contains a list of Locations on your computer and Identity Matches that you have instructed Identity Finder not to search for anymore. This is similar to an approved exceptions list because Identity Finder will never report results if they are in your ignore list. You can securely save this information across sessions of Identity Finder within your Personal Information File.
Identity Finder may uncover a sample credit card number inside a temporary internet file or a public password you do not want to secure. When this happens you can tell Identity Finder to ignore those matches for the current and future searches. Ignored matches are added to an approved exception list so you never see them again.
To manage your Ignore List and add or remove items, click the "Add/Remove Information" button on the What to Search for ribbon and click on the Ignore Identities and Locations tab. Alternatively you can click the "Ignore" button on the Main ribbon and then select the Manage 'Ignore List' option.
Here you can view all your Ignored Identities and Locations. If you make changes and want to Save your list for future sessions, click the "Save" button. Otherwise click OK. You may be prompted to provide a password if you are saving a new list. You can also load an Identity and Location Ignore List at any time by clicking the "Load" button.
All the information you enter will be saved to your Personal Information File (PIF). If you did not load this file on startup or you want to revert your changes to the last time you saved, you may press the "Load PIF" button. If you want your changes saved to your PIF, click the "Save PIF" button.
Note: Choose a strong password to be sure your list is safe.
