Slow performance and stuttering during any gameplay
Can anyone help sort out the problem of slow performance during gameplay?
- After installing Bit Defender, I've got proper stuttering in all games, which was never the problem. It is not the case in the hardware, as I have a 16GB DDR6 NVIDIA GeForce RTX3070 GPU and 64GB of RAM.
- I have tried to shut down Bit Defender, and it helped. But I need my anti-virus back.
What shall I do? Is this a common problem?
Please, any help is appreciated.

Hi @Paolo Daar
You could try adding the installed? games into AV Exceptions. If they are installed PC games, by adding the .exe into Advanced Threat Defense Exceptions as well.
Also, on a clean install of Bitdefender on Windows, Profiles are not enabled by default unless you did so on the main Dashboard, Recommendations. Otherwise, try enabling the Game Profile in the Utilities settings, and see if that helps.
Kind regards,
Scott

Thank you, guys, for your quick responses.
Reinstalling AV helped; everything works smoothly again. I tried exceptions before reinstallation, but that wasn't sufficient. I saw this topic somewhere on Google, dated back in 2015.
Anyway, the topic is solved. Thanks again.
