The bitdefender system scans very slowly, averaging only a few files or dozens of files per second, is there any way to improve. thank you
Thank you, I will try this way to see if it works better, I have been scanning 2Tb in 1 day for quite a while and almost my machine lags with other tasks.
Also to add, after the initial System scan, the following scans will go quicker as the files are indexed.
Taken from this link:
"With every system scan, Bitdefender will index the files that have already been scanned and the scan time will greatly decrease."
It is very slow for Quick scan...15-20 min.
To add here, you need to understand it depends whether you are running the scan for the first time or is it a regular scan. If it is a first time, the quick scan and full scan both will take time, even though quick scan only scans for critical areas for malware on the windows while full scan will scan complete windows for malware.
That being said whenever you first scan is completed a cache copy of scan is created and the scans that will be run afterwards will take less time to complete.
