You can set exclusions of course, but it does get tedious because every time you have a new project you need to add exclusions for its folder and the toolchain. Then every time a toolchain is updated (eg .../gcc/11.5 changes to gcc/11.5.2 you have to enter the 20 new exe exclusions and of course windows won't let you mass delete the old ones so it's click->confirm->click->confirm x50).
I might not do it myself but I can see why someone would just say "enough is enough".
