Got to give them credit when they told me to read the website to know when Bitdefender would be Windows 10 Compatible. However, it was not their main website but their blog.
Here it is today on Bitdefender's "Hot For Security" Blog.
Bitdefender Products Ready to Embrace Windows 10
Immediately after the upgrade from your old operating system has completed, your current antimalware product will likely be disabled if it is deemed incompatible with Windows 10. If your vendor has a version that is compatible, you will get a prompt asking you to upgrade the current security solution. Here is what to expect in case you are running a Bitdefender antimalware product, be it Bitdefender Antivirus, Bitdefender Internet Security or Bitdefender Total Security:

The transition will go smoothly, as your license key and account information does not get lost during the upgrade. It only takes one click and a couple of minutes to download and have the best security solution of the year up and running on your brand-new operating system.
The rest of the article in general stuff about Windows 10. However it is interesting to note this tidbit in the article where Bitdefender recommends users use a a "multi-layered" or complementary approach to computer security
. As the number of threats is abruptly increasing from one year to another, the use of a complementary antimalware solution is paramount.
Hopefully it goes as smoothly as they say. For those who plan to stay in the Microsoft Insider program I would wait until after July 29th before attempting to install a Bitdefender product, making sure to check their website for compatiblity and then downloading the latest intaller file from the website for your Bitdender program of your choice.
