Yes - this is a known issue.

Claus Sørensen wrote about this last month. I have had the same problems and 
did follow his recommendation. I wonder why QGIS want writing access to a 
program folder?.

I copy his mail here.

Hi everyone

On a QGIS workshop march 9. in Silkeborg, Denmark with 30+ enthusiastic 
newcomers to QGIS, we encountered 3 pc’s with extremely slow – tending to 
non-functional – search box in “Processing -> Toolbox”.

OS’es ranging from Win7, Win8.1 and Win10. Win7 and Win10 unknown version but 
with 2.14.0 also unknown bit  flavour.

My Win8.1 Pro in 64-bit with QGIS version 2.14.0  in 64 bit and no 
administrative rights.

By elevating security on the installation folder – in my case c:\Program 
Files\QGIS Essen\ - to allow users “change” rights, the search box became 
functional again – on every pc.

Emne: [Qgis-developer] Installation on Win10: msys missing? Then Processing 
deadly slow



Hi all,

on several installation of 2.14.1 on Windows 10, the msys folder is apparently 
missing. As a result (?), Processing is deadly slow when one tries to filter 
alg names.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks.
