How do I prevent Bitdefender from alternating Rules?

I've got bitdefender on my Windows10 Pro server.

Obviously I use Windows Remote Desktop to work on the server.

In the Bitdefender firewall rules I've got added "C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe" to use any network, any protocol, in/out bounds, specific port, any IP.

Once in a while, happened like 5 times already in the last ~18 months Bitdefender wipes out all user added Firewall Rules blocking any RDP connection- for no apparent reason.

I'm forced to use KVM over IP from ASRockRack to change the rules back to normal, and it wouldn't be the end of the world, but KVM over IP isn't working on my personal PC.

It isn't obviously the place to troubleshoot the issues with KVM connection, but right place to ask a question:

*** How can I force Bitdefender to not wipe out any custom added rules, for no reason, no matter what? ***
