Search Advisor only partially working
Windows 10 Home
MS Edge browser
I've noticed that the status icon to show if a link is safe or not, is only displayed for some links in a search engine. Yet McAfee Web Advisor worked with every search engine and every link. Any advice on getting Bitdefender Search Advisor to show the status of every link in a search result.
Bing. Works for some but not all links.
Google. Does not work for any links.
DuckDuckGo. Does not work for any links.
Yet McAfee Web Advisor worked with every search engine and every link.

Hello @Diatonic_Muttley and welcome to the Community!
This is a known issue that has been acknowledged by the developers and discussed in the forum on several occasions. I have included some examples of relevant threads below:
An investigation is being conducted by the developers to deploy a fix as soon as possible.
As it stands, the Search Advisor doesn't always work on Bing & Google and this is also being addressed.

Hello Alexandru_BD thank you for your reply, appreciated. 😀
I can remember this being an issue over the years, it's something they just can't seem to fix or won't fix 😕 . That's why I stopped using it and went with McAfee web advisor which manages to provide a rating on every link.
P.S. That's the only McAfee product I like 😱 .
Once again I appreciate the reply. 😀
