dpit 0 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Simple .Net 7 winform apps start slowly from a network folder. Pausing ESET protection allows the app to start immediately. Being self contained there is significant unpacking when executing the app thus ESET would be busy, but launch can take 10 seconds. If I run the same self contained app from my C drive, there is no noticeable delay. Is this a known problem/work in progress? Any advice please?

Administrators Marcos 4,614 Posted February 7 Administrators Share Posted February 7 Please provide logs collected with ESET Log Collector. Do you have scanning of network drives by real-time protection enabled by chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,614 Posted February 7 Administrators Share Posted February 7 Do you have network scanning enabled? If so, please try disabling it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpit 0 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 Disabling it allows the app to immediately launch. Do you suggest this should be disabled for all or was this just proving the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,614 Posted February 7 Administrators Share Posted February 7 We recommend disabling scanning of network drives and install ESET on every device in the network instead for maximum protection and to avoid potential issues.

dpit 0 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 It always feels uncomfortable to turn down ESET. Is it less risk if I add the network location as a performance exclusion, or disable scanning of network drives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,614 Posted February 7 Administrators Share Posted February 7 If you turn off scanning of network drives while ESET is installed on all computers in LAN, it's safer than not having ESET on all computers and rely on scanning of network drives.
