Installation Settings Default

Thopaga

Hello.

I had to stop Bitdefender Internet Security 2013 completely, so I turned everything OFF in the settings.

However now I do not know how to set every settings back to normal.

How can I do that?

Is there a listing which have all the installation default settings?

Thanks.

Hi, Thopaga

The easiest way to reset all your settings to the Bitdefender install default settings would be to run a repair: http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=35489

You could also just turn on what you had turned off, enable Autopilot, and confirm that the Antivirus On-access scanning is set to, Default.

Otherwise, if you want to print this off and go at it one by one, here it is:
