.SYNOPSIS Disable Windows Defender's scanner to optimize I/O. .DESCRIPTION By default Windows Defender scans literally all network traffic and any disk IO operations (ie: gzip), which slows down many CI use cases and isn't critical from a security perspective. We disable that by default but give users the option to turn it back on if they want. #> $ErrorActionPreference="Stop" Set-MpPreference -DisableRealtimeMonitoring $true |
