I experienced the same issue and had to uninstall Bitdefender on my computer.

When will this issue be fixed?

Hello guys,

I got in touch with our engineers and they confirmed we received a few reports that Bitdefender causes Boxcryptor to crash and display an error.

The issue was caused by an incompatibility. We added a quick fix that will be available in the market with the following signature update and this should be resolved by now.

@drewInBOS & @allanm could you please retry and let us know the results?

I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Stay safe.

It is common enough that Boxcryptor has a post on the issue: https://boxcryptor.community/d/17325-bitdefender-causes-boxcryptor-to-crash-due-to-out-of-memory/5

This same problem plagues Gravityzone.Bitdefender.com products.

Verdict still out on whether fixed.

Hi @smitty11,

Thank you for sharing this thread with us.

The issue was caused by an incompatibility and a fix was already deployed with a signature update on February 11th. I have noticed this information was also posted in the Boxcryptor thread.

Does anyone still encounter issues with this?

Cheers.
