Help allowing a false positive to run / exclude from detection

Running Sophos Endpoint 9.5.

As of the recent update, we are receiving a false positive that we need to run.  I have already submitted the file to Sophos and explained the issue.

The immediate issue is that the only way I can get this application to run is by stopping On-Access scanning.

When I try to run the assocated application, it detects a particular file as a problem and quarantines it/

I have already tried adding the single file to the exclusion list, but it detects that file as a problem.

I then tried to add the entire direction C:\Program Files\XXX to the exclusion list, but it still detects that file as a problem.

It is detecting the file as Virus/spyware, NOT HIPS/PUA/Suspicious behavior, etc.  However, that said, I added it to every list in Authorization manager that was possible (Suspicious Files, Buffer Overflow, Suspicious Behavior, Suspicious Files)

The detection is Virus/spyware: Mal/Ponmocup-A.  So I tried adding that to  to Adwwre and PUAs as well (IN Authorization Manager).

I have verified that my client is updated as I can see the exclusions and settings from that level.

Any advice, or am I stuck removing Sophos until this definition gets changed in some way.

Appreciate any advice that can be offered.
