NetBeans and Windows Defender

[Alessandro <al...@gmail.com>]

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

Good catch! It would be nice some implementation on this in 12.0.

Now really need that volunteer committer using Windows.
