Tray icon context menu triggers filesystem walk

[azanegin]

Misconfiguration of openvpn-gui may lead to slow appearence of contex menu.

I'm using version v11.46.0.0 but looks like its not novel.

Process Explorer shows the reason for it - each time we do right-click on a tray icon, it executes a filesystem search with unlimited depth (also ignoring convetions of exclusion of leading-dot folders) for .ovpn config files.

In my case, misconfiguration (using %HOME% folder for a config search path) lead to something akin to 5-10 second wait between a click and a menu appearing on a screen.

This results in steep drop of usabiliy. Whats worse, it is a nightmare to diagnose, because if you google "openvpn gui slow tray" and such, it fixates on "openvpn slow" part.

A simple and probably stupid fix idea would be to do the scan not before opening the context menu, but after that. Users will miss on a new config once, but will be able to already known ones.
