Password-protected excels are commonly used in our customers.
I want to avoid them being identified as viruses.
If there is a category that is more suitable for password Excel than 
Doc.Packed, I want to exclude it.
Is there a description for Doc.Packed somewhere?

I confirmed more categories are included in the list than ones in the document.

Best regards,
Toshiyuki Honda
