Smart app control(SAC) is a new feature in Windows 11 which
makes some installations extremely slow.
For example dotnet sdk takes 45 minutes to install with smart
app control and under a minute without it.
Reason why smart app control is so slow is that is tries to use
Windows defender and it is unable to connect to it as it is disabled.
At the moment it seems like it is not possible to disable the SAC
from shell effectively in provisioning. Registry edit does not
have immediate effect and forcing security service restarts cause
forced reboot. Only disabling it manually from settings will
have the desired effect.
