Bitdefender 2016 Using ~90%cpu For New Pc

Hey guys, first time on the forum, as I've never had problems with Bitdefender before. Maybe this has been solved, but I can't find it; I'm having an issue with Total Security 2016 using almost all of my CPU. I got a new laptop, and it's being bogged down with the AV. The computer is plenty powerful, but is running slowly, specifically due to bdwtxag.exe, bdagent.exe, and the Product Service Agent. Does anyone have a fix?

  • Hiya and welcome to the forum :)


    It shouldn't so first try running a repair. Go to the Windows Control Panel>Programs and Features>Bitdefender 2016>Repair or Uninstall. Choose Repair and let it finish and reboot your device.


    Let us know if that makes a difference.
