  • Hello,


     


    Error 1002 given when the machine doesn't have a internet connection or poor connectivity. Try again and see if the issue persists, if it does try restarting your router.


    The Update location can only be accessed by the product and not via browser.


  • I am having the same problem..how does one resolve it? I had no Internet access yesterday at all. Today I do,but the problem is still in my Bitdefender???


     


    Does no one reply or know how to fix this problem??


  • Have you checked if Bitdefender updater is allowed in your firewall exception list ?

  • Bonnie70 if you have windows firewall, follow these few easy steps  default_happy.png


    Control Panel> Windows Firewall> Adwanced Settings


    Than search for Bitdefender* in inbound and outbound rules list. Modify to allow.

  • OK fixed now..says the error was there on the 24th of April..but my PC is working better. What do u think of malwarebytes? I had it and that is when the error came up and screwed up my PC..Thanks.

  • I have similar problem and automatic updates no longer work on Bitdefender Total Security 2017,


    Bitdefender firewall is running and there's no way to allow Bitdefender in the rules for that I can find. 


    Last think anyone needs with rapidly changing threat landscape is an AV product that has to be updated manually
