UpSlide is slowing down Office Loading Times

If you observe a delay in Office applications loading, it is often caused by the AntiVirus Software.

To solve this issue, three exceptions needs to be added in your AntiVirus configuration:

• C:\ProgramData\UpSlide
• C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\UpSlide
• C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\assembly

If UpSlide is still slow after adding these 3 exceptions please contact us at support@upslide.net.

Note: this behavior is caused by VSTO inner workings (see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vsod/2008/10/31/office-customization-createsloads-dll-from-temporary-folder/ for details)
