How to deactivate the quick 15 second scan for malware

I develop programs and every time I compile a program for test running, this quick scan for malware starts. It wasn’t so before. It started some weeks ago. Anyway it is really annoying to have to wait for 15 seconds hundreds of times every day. How can that scan be deactivated?

Thanks, but that doesn’t solve my own problem that my newly compilated program is scanned every time it is re-compiled, and that can happen 100 times in a day.

Disable CyberCapture.

You would need to disable DeepScreen in order to deactivate that 15 second scan, however, that option is now merged with CyberCapture so you would need to disable CyberCapture via Settings > General.

I wouldn’t recommend you do it because both CyberCapture and Deepscreen are mechanisms to prevent malware infections.
