>TL;DR - Windows Defender adds 1.5 minutes or more to Eclipse launch Same situationin our company. Windows defender blocks not only Eclipse startup,but also kicks in when we start a new RCP session from our development IDE. Then I guess it is scanning the jars of the target platform.
Interesting thing is that this does not happen all the time. Sometimes it happens on the first Eclipse startup after a reboot, sometimes after hours of working. I work with multiple IDE instances at the same time, frequently starting RCP debug sessions. From a gut feeling I would say that scanning happens 1 out of 10 times. And when it happens it is really annoying. Eclipse for Platform developers takes 5 minutes to start on a modern laptop with SSD. As our users also complain a lot about the slowliness of Eclipse I would love if there were a way to teach windows defender that these jars can be trusted somehow.
