Hi all, Windows users often report performance issues caused by the Windows Defender native antivirus software. It would be great if NetBeans could detect Windows Defender running and warn the users at startup.
Here https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/master/platform/platform-impl/src/com/intellij/diagnostic/WindowsDefenderChecker.java is what Intellij IDEA Community does to detect Windows Defender and even add some folders to the ignore list. That code could be adapted to have a similar functionality in NetBeans. The code is Apache 2.0 licensed but cannot be used as it is. Any Windows based takers? Regards, Alex
