Please bring back the Security Widget in Total Security
As I mentioned in a different thread / category, finding out that the Security Widget as been removed from BD Total Security 2021 in the most recent version is a huge disappointment. It has been one of the best features of the product for years now for several reasons, but one main reason is that it provides an…

Support Brave Browser
Hi, I know this was requested before but just today the AV vendor ESET has officially added support for Brave Browser. Actually, ESET was already doing HTTPS Scanning/Encrypted web scan on Brave but with the latest update it now officially supports it. Bitdefender can block known malicious/phishing sites accessed in Brave,…

Password protected Uninstallation of Bitdefender products
In Bitdefender Total Security (BDTS) there is an option to password protect the product settings, but that is only for the settings, not for the uninstallation process of the product. So, anyone who has access to my laptop, can easily uninstall/remove BDTS from my laptop, without me knowing that. That way, i will be…

Firewall rules: extending rules to subfolders

Add Folder to firewall rules
Hi everyone, I thought it would be a nice idea if you could add a folder to the firewall custom rules, instead of just specific executable files. Any chance we could see this? Cheers

Req visually obvious notification for required restart
I love the set-it-and-forget-it use of BD. I rarely open the dashboard. However, when a restart is required to finish an update, I will always miss it because I go weeks without restarting my PC. Could we have an obvious visual notification in the tray, please? A pop up, mouse-over balloon, flashing icon or change of color…

Option to disable Anti-Theft
It is good to have some kind of control when someone steals or you lose your device but in my opinion it shouldnt be forced and not possible to disable. Not everyone wants there to be an option to wipe their device with 1 click or track/lock it. For me personally i just dont feel safe knowing that if anyone with malicious…

Passkeys
The use of physical passkeys to login into accounts and especially for secure pass, with technology ever evolving and hackers getting smarter i can't understand why this hasn't been enabled yet especially with devices like a simple charging cable borrowed from someone in an emergency with a keylogger. 2FA just isn't safe…

Instant Wi-Fi intruder alerts for Mac
Hi everyone! I wanted to request the Bitdefender developers to add Wi-Fi intruder alerts as a feature. I've been using Avast Premium Security as my security solution on Mac for some time now, but I've been wanting to switch over to Bitdefender for Mac, it has all the features Avast has except for this one, which I think is…

Fix the restore functionality for quarantined files
Hi, I'm currently using the trial version of Total Security, and while I like many aspects of the software, the program's inability to restore quarantined files to certain directories like "C:\Program Files" is very annoying. I never experienced something like this in other AV products. Thankfully, using Windows 10's…

Parental Control Advanced Warning To End User affected by ScreenTime / Schedule time
It's very frustrating for the kids doing something on the computer to suddenly be kicked off the device (here being the computer), without being able to save their work in progress. This results in me having to disable the screen time for 5 minutes so they can go back and save whatever they are doing (or shutoff specific…

Bulk submission of malicious phishing links for analysis
When reporting phishing links, you should be able to submit phishing links in bulk instead of one by one especially since there is a 2 minute cooldown for submissions. Please also add a tool that you can use to mass check if the links you are about to submit are already detected by Bitdefender or not.

Defenders of the month rewards
Hi everyone, At the moment when you get the defenders of the month reward it's a free month validity extension to Bitdefender. Getting a free month sub is great but how about letting the defenders of the month choose from different rewards. Maybe instead of automatically getting the free month sub you get tokens that you…

Remove, or make optional, the Bitdefender "safe" label in Email Protection
For me, having the "Dangerous" label is all that is required. By definition, all other incoming emails are safe. I don't like getting every single email tagged with a useless label. It should at least be optional if users want the "safe" label. Yes, I know that some users might not understand that Email Protection only…

Exclusions in Mobile Security for Android
Hello, I'd like to request an exclude/ignore list for threat scans on Android, both app and storage. While the app can't remove the threats by itself, it most certainly is irritating to see a red shield for just a couple of riskware apps that I perfectly am aware of the risks of .

Uninstall Protection
Hello everyone, my name is Hossam and I am happy to be a part of this community! I really like Bitdefender due to its amazing features. However, I wish it had a feature like Uninstall protection, specifically for parental control app. For instance, if we take the Qustodio parental control app as an example, we can see this…

Feature Request: Add user configurable option to enable audible alerts
Hi - I have been using BitDefender for a while now, and I think it is excellent. However, there is one huge functional deficiency that I keep running into: I have missed almost every single BitDefender Critical warning notification during a detection because there is no audible alert option. I have only found out that…

Please Bitdefender Home User team, please re-issue a Bitdefender AV for Linux home users.

OneClick Optimizer registry information
I appreciate the fact that OneClick Optimizer is cautious in not being overly zealous in finding myriads of registry keys to resolve, but, it would be nice to be able to click on and expand the issues to see the information on what keys it found for deletion. And that we could select individually the ones we think could be…

Problem during Scan and Update
Yesterday I observed a problem that appeared during the System Scan. I enabled Full Scan and in the middle of the scan it said that the Program is starting an Update and it has Aborted the Scan. In the case of a large amount of data, this can be tedious because I now have to Scan again. Please add a rule that blocks the…

Improvements to bitdefender anti theft feature
I would like to request some improvements to the bitdefender anti theft feature: 1. Before an action is taken on a device using anti theft, the user's password should be requested to confirm the user's action. This will reduce the chance of a user accidentally wiping their own device or a malicious third party…

Filtering notifications by type
In Bitdefender Total Security notifications can filter by importance (critical/warning/informational), but it would be useful if they could be filtered by category as well, such as, network, camera, scan results, malware detection etc. For example, if you want to see the history of computer scans, you must scroll through…
