What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
After 4.0-5402 - PR 1949 https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/1949 Dolphin starts very slowly: every time I launch the emulator, it takes almost 10 seconds on my system to start the "scanning for ISOs" process and then show the game list, while with 4.0-5400 the scanning always starts instantly (0,1 sec.)
What did you expect to happen instead?
Dolphin to start instantly
What steps will reproduce the problem?
[Don't assume we have ever played the game and know any level names. Be as
specific as possible.]
1.launch Dolphin
2.wait for the scanning ISOs process
Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?
4.0-5927
Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?
4.0-5400
What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
Intel e8400, Nvidia gtx650ti, Windows 8.1
Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)
Launching Dolphin as administrator (run as administrator) speeds up the process (instead of 10 seconds it takes 3 seconds to start the scan), but it is still much slower than before
