Bitdefender Free - Several seconds to eliminate the malware.

Nunzio77

Hello,

I still don't understand why Bitdefender Free (but I also think paid products) takes longer than some other AVs to remove / quarantine malware, even malware present in signatures. Does it do any extra tasks while removing it unlike other AVs that it doesn't do? So is it a more radical cleaning or is it just a longer time it takes to do the same thing that other AVs do?

Thanks! 🙂

There is currently no proper solution regarding this and bitdefender does take time in eliminating threats from the system, be it the free or the paid version.

If they are excel or word files instead it puts them in quarant instantly, the problem is almost exclusively for executables (exe).

All bitdefender staff members including the admins, developers and malware researchers are aware of this thing and it does not seems to be creating any issue for which a fix is needed. It is how bitdefender function.
