How can I turn off USB Immunizer Recommendation
I use many USB flash drives for transferring new software versions to computers, running Utilities such as AOMEI Partition Assistant Technician Edition, data backup, etc. I do not want your USB Immunizer installed on any of these USB devices.
How can I turn off these USB Immunizer Recommendation popups so I don't have to cancel them 10 to 20 times a day.
Thanks for helping with this nuisance issue.

Hello.
Open the Bitdefender app, then go to Settings -> General and switch off "Recommendation notifications".

Hello @dagar7,
Try the following: go to Antivirus > Settings > disable Scan flash drives:
Then go to Vulnerability > Settings > toggle off Autoplay, as this displays a notification whenever you insert an USB from which you are trying to run something:
Let us know if this helps.
Best regards.

Turning off "Recommendation notifications" is not working. I am still getting the "USB Immunizer Recommendation" every time I insert a USB drive. I verified that the setting is still off as recommended by Gjoksi79. Any other ideas?

Ditto for me; Bitdefender 2023 has a very different menu too.

Bitdefender Free version wants to scan my F:\ drive (thumb drive) daily. For some reason, it reverts "Scan flash drives: 'Disabled'" back to 'Autoscan' upon restart. I've set 'Manage exceptions' to ignore scanning my F:\ drive, and that remains as a setting, but doesn't prevent the scanning.
I've also set 'Manage exceptions' for the F:\ drive under 'Advanced Threat Defense' but Bitdefender still wants to scan the drive. Am I missing a 'Save' button to activate, or is this feature only available under the paid version?

@ChuckF ,
Welcome to the Bitdefender Forums. This is a known bug that is under investigation. A fix is on the way.
Have a great day.
