Slow plugin loading (previously worked fine )

In particular, I have tried to disable Windows Defender antivirus scanning only for the Renoise installation folders (the default Renoise installation folder and the default tools installation folder).

You can manage this in the Windows Security panel, under Exclusions.

For now, the problem has disappeared.

I have definitely been able to verify that this is not enough. I am having the same problems again.

Finally, I have resolved it by enabling Microsoft Defender Antivirus disable, inside Windows 11 Pro, using the local group policy editor:

Again this affects both the initial loading of Renoise and smooth use of the window tools. The problem happens randomly. Sometimes it may even be present for multiple Renoise reboots in a row.

Just to clarify. I’m sure this problem wasn’t present months ago. It is a relatively new matter. I’d say this is a few weeks ago. I know it happens in version 3.3.2 and future version (in all its variants).
