Still VVVV + VL taking ages to open

i prefer adding vvvv.exe as a process rather than the folder. why ? because then it doesnt matter where vvvv is located and which vvvv version you start. it’s the windows defender VIP ticket for vvvv.

on the other hand, it is a shame we have to do this, i just tested the difference on my uptodate PC : 2:30 minutes startup without tweak vs. 5 s startup with tweak. is there any way to get vvvv microsoft signed / approved ? it is the only software i know of which takes that long to start on a win 10 machine. imagine what a beginner has to do and to know of, just to get vvvv up and running.

  • downloading vvvv
  • understand and install the addon pack
  • understand and install packs and dx11 (usually)
  • finding out about the setup and be surprised what else she/he has to install (7 things in total)
  • and as a bonus quest, looking at a 2:30 minute splash screen, thinking vvvv just crashed

it is actually surprising people start learning vvvv after this.
