Change Update Frequency
Can someone tell me how to change the frequency of updates BD 2014?
I watch streaming video and I have found that every 15 minutes when BD checks for updates the video stutters or freezes. I'd like to change it to check at 3 hour intervals.
I have tried to change the settings as detailed from here http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=45235
The problem is when i try to change the settings i am unable.
I have started in safe mode and carried out the instructions. I can highlight the values but am unable to change them using the numbers on my keyboard.
I do not get any sort of warning message.
I am using windows 7.

Just checked on mine, after safe mode and finding the update_settings.xml file click it to highlight, rt. click and open with notebook.
I could set the cursor after the 60 and delete it, then added a new figure.
File>save and it was done.0 -

Glad to help.
Ha, I was a little worried as I hadn't had an update since "messing" with that file, but I just had one so all is good.

So BD updates every 15mins?
yea i would like to adjust that also.0 -
That's really bad. It shouldn't be every 15 minutes. Aren't updates available once a month if I'm not mistaken?
Virus updates are checked for every 15 minutes, product updates every hour. Seems reasonable to me.
Why the heck do you want them once a month? I guess that is OK if you want to be well out of date.0 -
I like every 15mins it don't slow my computer down at all,it checks but doesn't mean it DL all the time once a month would be crazy.
i want to make sure I'm always updated.0
