JetBrains IDEs actually tell you to exclude some directories from Defender (and will even do it for you in some instances) because of performance issues. DevDrive[1] fixes that since it's excluded from defender by default.

I've used Rider to add the folder as an exclusion, no dice.

I'm going to give dev drive a go, but forgive me for being sus for enabling a feature for a problem that MS seem to have caused.
