I would be very surprised if Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition had any trouble on Windows 10 with regard of scanning files (including HTTP scanning) or monitoring the file system. I would await a word of confirmation from Bitdefender® regarding its use on Windows 10 mainly because of the proactive protection side of it (i.e., the Active Virus Control and B-Have technologies). The way Bitdefender monitors processes is a distinctive part of the protection it offers and its operation is probably more sensitive to the operating system. I think the new version of the operating system would be likely to require a revision of the software as it happened when Windows 8.1 was introduced.

Note: I have yet not seen Windows 10, nor have any rush for it. If it is just like Window 8 with an old style start menu, it may not require any version revision from any software

Some software does require modifications but not much. The only thing I had that doesn't work is the Motherboard utility from Gigabyte called Easy Tune. I was using it in 8.1 to control my CPU fan speed. It does not load in Windows 10 and throws up an error about a driver problem. Classic Shell also had to be updated for Windows 10 but they did it ahead of time.0 -
HTTP scaning is NOT working.
Look..When I visited Visit My Website with Windows 8.1 bitdefender free blocked whole website with bitdefender warning....because there is eicar.com false virus for testing antiviruses...
Now when i visit the same webpage, bitdefender doesnt react unless Im downloading and saving the file.... Which means HTTP scaning is NOT working as with Windows 8.1.....0 -
Maybe the site has now been whitelisted? The site does load for me as well but I never went there in 8.1. I'll try it on my Win 7 machine that hasn't been upgraded (and probably won't be).HTTP scaning is NOT working.

Interesting, it seems you're right. The site gets blocked by BD in Win 7 but not in 10. Good catch. BD needs to be alerted to this ASAP.0 -

According to this virustotal analysis Bitdefender is the only engine labeling that address as a malware site and Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition on Windows 8 reports it as such. How about downloading the eicar test file form eicar's download page: Does it block the page or does it quarantine the file after downloading it (under Windows 10)?0 -
Bitdefender catch the file when is saving on the disk. And move the file to the quarantine.. And pc is safe.. But its not working HTTP scaning as before...

The Eicar page is not blocked but downloading is. However, if you use IE, the download gets blocked by the Smart Screen Filter as well.0 -

I found that Windows Defender could not be turned on after installation of Bitdefender even if 'Virus Shield' was already off.
Uninstallation of Bitdefender was no solution. I have had to run System Restore to make Windows Defender work again. I suspect Bitdefender Free Edition 2014 is not fully compatible with Windows 10 on some computers.0
