Thank you for your understanding.

Bitdefender USB Immunizer,is that one still usable ?

Options

Searching in the web I've found some suggestions on the possible use of this tool for trying to disable the autorun function on external drives.

Is that still supported or in use?

Or maybe there is a function in BDTS that could be the same as it (looking in settings I've only seen the option to enable the auto scan of external drives)?

What are your advices about this one?

    Bitdefender USB Immunizer is a tool that stops malware from automatically running when you plug in a USB drive. It adds a special command to the USB drive's files, preventing any automatic execution of malware. This adds extra security, as you'll need to manually open files on the USB drive.

    If malware is hiding on a USB drive, Bitdefender's real-time protection steps in to keep you safe. The USB Immunizer isn't necessary anymore, as Bitdefender itself can scan USB drives as soon as they are plugged in. You can manage this feature in the Bitdefender settings under Protection Settings, where you'll find the option to scan flash drives.
