Warning mode in bitdefender 2022 lead a life of its own

Hoss1310

Since the upgrade from internet security 2021 to 2022 (updated to version 26.0.7.41), programs connect to the internet without my permission.

Alert mode checkbox is enabled and works perfectly. When I shut down the computer and restart it, everything is fine.

When I reboot the computer, Bitdefender allows all programs. Warning mode checkbox is still enabled and yet programs connect to the Internet unsolicited. Solution is to disable warning mode and enable it again, then I have controle again for giving permission to a program. When the computer has to reboot for some reason I have the same problem again.

Anyone else have this problem or am I the only one?

Does anyone have a solution for this very annoying problem?
