I do it, but nothing change really.
What I think is that Kaspersky Firewall UI needs a upgrade and became more compatible with Windows Store apps, especially cause the changing path after each app update.

Almost every day I have to close the Kaspersky which means that sometimes I forget to reopen it when I don't need anymore apps. Mostly the issues are with the messengers like Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp. For example, with active the Kaspersky, I can't send files through the WhatsApp.
Windows Apps path is like C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\[random string]\app\[app name].exe, with that random string to be changed from time to time. So, I have to add as trusted applications these programs again and again, or just kill the whole Kaspersky when I use these apps.
Kaspersky needs to support better Windows Apps and Windows Store Programs

It is pretty clear what going on... Kaspersky didn't include exclusions for programs which are downloaded & installed from Windows Store. The path of these programs are changed during each update at least, so the user has to change the path very often. For example WhatsApp path now is like "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\5392344A.WhatsAppDesktop_2.2301.4.0_x64__randomstring\WhatsApp.exe"
I did a few further notices. In the exclusions UI settings there are two choices one "manage exclusions" and the other "specify trusted application". In the section choice there is no to use as a path symbol as "?" or "*" (check this link). In the generic choice of "manage exclusions" you can use ? and *, but is not working maybe because you excluded only one file not the whole program.
