I found this webpage from MS which talks about configuring Windows Defender.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/turn-off-defender-antivirus-protection-in-windows-security-99e6004f-c54c-8509-773c-a4d776b77960 I'm running a Windows 10 VM via VirtualBox on a MacBookPro. I have my $HOME (where I have all my source code) imported into the VM as the E: drive in the VM. Reading the above and poking around a bit led me to a) exclude the E: drive "folder", and b) exclude the "go.exe" executable. "go test" time dropped from > 3m to ~6s. Hope that helps. -- Larry On Thursday, June 22, 2023 at 8:47:59 AM UTC-4 Jet Li wrote: Like to note that if you mean Windows Defender, there is no way to disable that after Build 20H2 iirc where I was task to deploy Windows 10 and could not find the option in Windows Group Policy settings after the update, if Go app are affected by Windows Defender. Your only option is to use older Windows build and alternative OS, mileage may vary. Another option, could be impossible to backup VM image as it's on macOS https://multipass.run/ On Thursday, 22 June 2023 at 19:52:56 UTC+8 Wojciech S.

The answer is always the same: turn off your antivirus software for your development tree. Such delays are due to "heuristics" usually implemented by uploading your exe to the vendor. Root cause is that after 12 years AV vendors still can not cope with what they pereceive a "non standard" linker, ie. a Go's one. hope this helps, -- Wojciech S.
