very slow when launch of Zotero 5

Debug ID:D1314617454
  • (3)(+0000000): Using data directory E:\Program Files (x86)\Documents\Zotero
    (3)(+0000005): Sorting items list by title, firstCreator, date, dateAdded ascending for 189 items
    (3)(+0000000): User interface ready in 22074 ms
    1) You have your data directory within the Program Files folder, where it should never be.

    2) You have your Program Files folder on external or network drive, which is likely causing the slowdown. That number of items definitely shouldn't take 22 seconds to load.

    You should try moving your Zotero data directory back to the default location on the local disk, and if possible the same for Program Files.

    The problem was finally solved after I repaired the registry of Windows Defender.
    This is the ID after normal startup.
