Solution
If your program is for personal use:
- Add the compile folder to the exclusion list (might need system restart)
- Add your whole personal projects folder to the exclusion list. Take care, don't use in this folder code/projects downloaded from the internet that you don't trust.
- Use another antivirus (including windows built-in)
