Agent Watchdog Scheduled Task

Options

Bitdefender Agent Watchdog.exe is scheduled to run at start up and then repeat every 30 minutes after that.

What does Watchdog actually do and why is it set to run repeatedly every 30 minutes? Can I edit this to reduce the frequency that it runs without compromising system security?

I just don't like programs running in the background unnecessarily while using the PC for a processor intensive application.

Thanks

    Hello Ghutcheon,

    Thats how the system was designed, please note it does not affect the performance of the machine. If you make changes to that scheduled task it will revert back after an update.

  • Thanks Sorin G. I will leave it alone then. :)
