BitDefender blocks Sidify Convertor and Amazon Music Win 11 App

Options

I have installed Sidify Amazon Music Converter in Win 11 and when BitDefender Shield is of (unprotected) the software works OK and is functional. When BitDefender shield is enabled the Sidify and Amazon Music crashes and apparently a malware is cleaned. I have isolated the problem with a file which is quarantined in Users\~\AppData\Local\Temp and this file is being created when AmazonApp is loading. To me I don't this it is a nasty file as I have not noted any ill consequences after working on the laptop for days. I have also tried to make it safe as exception in Shield Protection but this is not helpful. Can somebody shed some light as to the remedy of this problem? Thank you

    Set exclusion in bitdefender product.


    1) Temporarily disable Bitdefender Protection: https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/28557/
    2) Set exclusions in Bitdefender Antivirus: https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/13427/
    3) Set exclusions in Bitdefender Advanced Threat Defense:

    4) Re-enable real-time protection in Bitdefender


    Additionally, if you believe that a website or file has been incorrectly blocked by Bitdefender, you can share the details with our malware researchers by filling out the form at the link provided below:

    If the website or file is indeed incorrectly blocked, the detection will be removed within a maximum of 72 hours. However, if the detection still persists after 72 hours, please consider the website or file as malicious, as determined by our malware researchers, and the detection will remain.

  • Thank you Flexx but no success with your advice. In short: 1. I have disabled Every step you suggested and both Sidify and Amazon Music work; 2. I have disabled by exclusion ONLY Advanced Threat and it is sufficient to make both Sidify and Amazon work; 3. When loading Sidify loads OK and calls in Win 11 Amazon MusicApp and this one crashes half way through; 4. when crashes, BitDefender gives reference to the file "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\AmazonMobileLLC.AmazonMusic_9.5.2.0_x86_kc6t79cpj4tp0" which does not exist on the system and scan tells me it is quaratining a malware; however, if the BitDefender is disabled the software works and subsequent scan shows no malware on the system; 5. I have added Sidify as exception to the Advanced Threat but to no avail and cannot find the entry for WinApp Amazon Music to add it in.

    My take from all the above is that Sidify calls in Amazon Music WinApp and this one crashes as malware; however, I have installed Amazon Music WinApp separately on the system and this works OK on its own;

    May I ask for further ideas please? Thanks flexx
