Windows Unusual delay running the game, VM and YYC

So this only started happening today, in all of my projects.

When I press run, it would normally takes seconds for the thing to finish and run the game. Now it takes about 40 seconds each time, which seriously hampers the ability to quickly prototype and test things.

I've seen more threads about this problem here and there, and none of them seemed to have a solution. In those threads people were pointing at the "!!!!No INI File" message that seems to appear last in the output, but it actually gets stuck on something after the INI loading it seems.

Already tried clearing cache and temp folders, no success.

Does anybody have a clue on how to make this issue go away?

Check your anti virus settings and ensure that you exclude all project directories and the GMS temp and cache directories as well

Anti-virus was off already.

The issue seems to be gone now, I have done two things in the meantime:
- Restart PC
- Disconnect gamepad

Not sure which solved the issue, but I'll make sure to check if it ever happens again.
