Update Reboot Required
This is the first time to use Bitdefender and have total security 2012 installed. Every time an update is performed
I am required to reboot the computer and even if I do reboot the next update I am prompted to reboot again.
I will get about 60 prompts a day to reboot probably more because i will delete the threads regulary
So frustrating I had Kaspersky before this and was only prompted to reboot once every couple of months.
Any sugestions to fix this?

Hello,
The problem is not fixed. Reboot required after every update. I disabled all alerts in bitdefender window setting. I do not know that it is OK. I hope that this will be fixed.

I have the same problem, among things not working properly. I also run Reg. Mechanic. Are you saying I must remove REG MECHANIC from my computer in order to use Bitdefender?0 -
Yes, as DanyDan's post that you quoted, states. Running multiple security programs can cause conflicts and affect system performance as described HERE.
You can run some other security programs as long as they don't have any real time protection. For example, I am also using the FREE version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware which does NOT have any real time protection module and it does not conflict with BD.

Reg. Mechanic is NOT a "security program". I have asked for a refund because I have exhausted myself trying to gain control over the 2 computers that have Bitdefender 2012 installed.0 -
