Exit Bitdefender
I want to suggest a new, very simple feature, that Bitdefender should have: "Exit" I have used Bitdefender for quite some time, but I always had a problem that ended up being a dealbreaker, when I performed very performance intensive things that required my computer's 100% power, I couldn't just exit Bitdefender, so…

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…

Backup Bitdefender Settings (VERY OLD IDEA, BUT NEVER IMPLEMENTED)
It would be VERY, VERY, VERY nice to have an option to backup/export ALL Bitdefender settings. When you have to reïnstall your OS, it would be VERY, VERY, VERY nice to have an option to restore your settings of Bitdefender ! I now make screenshots of every settings page of BD to restore it by hand ... Takes forever to…

Firewall - Info about BLOCKED items is useless ... 2 issues
1 - You need to add a "copy and paste" feature to the text info in the firewall warning popup window.. Explanation - the firewall popup warning window asks you if you want to "block or allow" an app to access the net,,, but what the app actually is is a mystery to the average non computer user, for example i basically got…

Extra option for what to do on finding a problem
Long-time Kaspersky user. New user here. Trojan Generic 17890680 was found. Normally I would have asked for removal. But it turns out I Use that product for many years almost every day. So I asked BitDefender to ignore this one. But extending 'ignore' to all other findings is almost the same as not using an antivirus. New…

Feature Request
I have a feature request for the developers to implement in the Bitdefender product when scanning for malware on the respective operating system (Windows, Mac, Android) 1) Is it possible to include the estimated time for the scan to be completed? 2) Is it also possible to include the percentage of the scan that has been…

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…

Show which protected path is being accessed on Safe Files prompts.
I want to propose adding a logical detail when Safe Files is triggered, right now a prompt looks like this: This only shows what app is trying to access a protected path, but omits a crucial information: which path is being accessed. This is very important when deciding whether to authorize the access or not, because that…

UI option for bitdefender labs

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…

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…

Add Bitdefender Scan to Context Menu in Windows File Explorer
I could not find an easy way to do a one time scan on an attached USB HDD, without going thru setups for a scan. Adding Scan to Windows File Explorer Context Menus, as was available with Kaspersky, would be a big time saver.

Seamless switching between VPN and Web Protection
The VPN app has an option to auto-connect to VPN when connected to an open WiFi-network. Great feature. But it doesn’t switch automatically back to the Web Protection connection (on iOS). This leads to a constant connection to the VPN. Not bad for your security and / or privacy, but: It could be annoying to manually switch…

Show reputation rating about a file & submit False Positive directly in the product
I am not sure if Bitdefender has reputation cloud or something like that. Based on my experience with ESET, Kaspersky and Norton, I find the reputation quary feature (ESET's LiveGrid, Kaspersky's KSN and Norton's file insight) very useful when deciding whether or not to open a file. For example, if I want to open a file…

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…

Turn on/off Profiles via right click tray icon?
Hi, I thought it would be nice if you could right-click on the tray icon for BitDefender to toggle the profiles. Being able to turn on a profile without needing to go into the interface would be good. Cheers

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…

An OLD Topic for backing up Bitdefender Settings but Something MUST be done. [MOVED]
Bitdefender, Please, Please add a backup / restore Bitdefender Settings for every user's sanity. The inability to backup crutial app data is paramount to maintaining a network of computers with the same settings. The idea that you do not have this capability is criminal. Just be like Nike and "Do It".

[macOS] Offline TrafficLight database
I tried Bitdefender for Mac today, and decided to try its TrafficLight extension that checks the safety of websites. As I always do, for privacy reasons, I used a proxy to intercept the traffic and see what data, if any, Bitdefender sends to work. Unfortunately, TrafficLight sends every URL to Bitdefender for checking,…

QR code scanner and Bitdefender Mobile Security
Many competing antivirus companies offer their own QR code scanners, which before opening the weblink, check, if the page is safe. In my opinion, also Bitdefender could create a QR code scanner app that would cooperate with Mobile Security in preventing the opening of malicious pages.
