How do I get Bitdefender to startup when my computer is turned on.

Mr Joe

Bitdefender does not startup when booting from the startup menu.

I see that you have privately messaged me also regarding this. Kindly stick to one post. I have tagged admins @Alexandru_BD and @Mike_BD in the private message post that you sent me and they will reply back soon to you.

Hello,

Done. I have replied privately, but I'll share my response here as well:

Starting with the build versions 19.x, 20.x and 21.x bdagent.exe no longer loads automatically from the Run registry key, but it is set to run as a scheduled task.

In Task Scheduler, Bitdefender Agent is now scheduled to start with a delay after boot. Therefore, the system tray icon appears a little bit later.

NOTE: This does not jeopardize the security of the Windows systems.

It only delays the load of some Bitdefender graphics for a better response of Windows 10. The anti-malware engines are loaded automatically at boot from vsserv.exe. This is the main process of Bitdefender in charge of real-time protection.

Even though the interface is not loaded yet, Bitdefender still provides real-time protection against malware even before your Windows account loads completely.

I hope this answers your question.

Best regards,

Alex
