How can I configure IntelliJ IDEA to have Annotation processors enabled by default?
Currently, I have to enable it manually for every imported project.

Do you import the project from Maven or Gradle? – CrazyCoder Jun 09 '17 at 09:52

@CrazyCoder mostly - gradle. I just want this flag to be checked by default. There should not be any issues if there are no annotation processors on classpath. – Andrii Abramov Jun 09 '17 at 09:54

1Did you try File | Other Settings | Default Settings and enable it there before importing? – CrazyCoder Jun 09 '17 at 09:55

@CrazyCoder thank you. I did not know about _File | Other Settings | Default Settings_. This seems to be an answer to mu question. – Andrii Abramov Jun 09 '17 at 10:01

IntelliJ has started asking this every time I open the IDE in 2020.2. – maaw Sep 24 '20 at 19:17

Current IDE version:
File | New Project Settings | Settings for New Projects..., navigate to the compiler settings, annotation processing and enable this option before importing the project.
Previous versions:
File | Other Settings | Default Settings, navigate to the compiler settings, annotation processing and enable this option before importing the project.

2After installing new Intellij 2018.2, I got the same problem. Default setting has already been set to correct value. But problem resolved only after File/Invalidate caches/Invalidate and restart – Geniy Aug 13 '18 at 10:58
