I am running Windows 11 Pro on Dell Alienware laptops with NVIDIA 2070 and 3060 GPUs. Up til recently, everything worked well and now Defender is ramping up the CPU usage and fans ramp up when I am live streaming. I'm streaming with 2 PTZOptics 1080/60fps NDI cameras. I loaded my second Alienware laptop and it exhibits the same problem. I tried excluding the vMix folder, NDI folder, vMix exe, NDI exe, defender exe, etc. Stopped scheduler job for scanning. Only solution was to turn off tamper protection then disable defender entirely. Now, the PC has tons of headroom.

I'm looking for any suggestions to address this.

Possibly a different antivirus product? Not sure I even need it since this is only used for streaming a Church service.

Thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,
I'm using GData antivirus for all my streaming devices. No issues at all.

Just the antivirus product? I'll try anything to get past this issue.
