I found out why my fans are whirling at max. It has to do with Windows Defender, which I cannot disable1. Turns out I have to do two things:
- Add an exception to all of my executables.
- Add an exception to Windows Defender.
Both are silly. The latter is nonsensical
.
1Alternatively, if I install another AV, Defender would supposedly turn off. Even then, people have reported that it may not happen. ![]()
