Util.getWinDirs triggers an antivirus

[rivashin]

OS: Windows 10

A java program calling Util.getWinDirs() triggers an antivirus scan on my laptop (Avecto Defendpoint) and takes almost 2 minutes to complete.
E.g this class:

public class A {
  public static void main(String[] a) throws Exception {
    System.out.println("Hello! " + new java.util.Date());
    io.github.soc.directories.ProjectDirectories.from("crash", "boom", "bang");
    System.out.println("Bye! " + new java.util.Date());
  }
}

prints

Hello! Sat Jan 18 21:30:56 GMT 2020
Bye! Sat Jan 18 21:32:40 GMT 2020

Interestingly, if I save the powershell script that ProjectDirectories use into a file a.ps1 and run it like this: powershell -File a.ps1 then it completes in a couple of seconds.

Don't know if -NoProfile can help here…

Not using -Noprofile actually causes this call to fail for me as my profile loads things that output values that interfere with the proper execution of the script. I think all invocations of powershell like this should use -NoProfile as pointed out by @alexarchambault .
