BD Total Security 2019 won't install
I was having trouble with BD 2019 so I uninstalled using the reinstall option from the Programs menu. I went to BD central and selected install protection on this device. Downloaded the file and ran it. All I get is an initial screen the says BD is preparing to install; this lasts only a few seconds and disappears, then nothing further happens.
I tried running the BD 2019 uninstaller which says it completed successfully and tried installing again; same result.
Any ideas?

So after many attempts here is what has been happening:
When I start the installation file a screen comes up saying BD is preparing to install (it disappears immediately) after about 12 minutes a screen comes up saying Preparing your BD product, that lasts about 8 minutes. At each successive step in the process there is a lag of from 7 to 12 minutes. Finally, BD says it is installed and I get the screen "Start using BD". I press this and about 3 minutes later I get a sign-on screen. After filling in my account name & password the process fails with a message: "bitdefender agent unable to connect to server"
This is as far as I ever get. There seems to be no way to get BD to sign-in and complete the process.
Please help! I have been at this for 6 hours now and have no protection on my computer.

Oh and I should add that since its "installed" my PC is f**ked - apps and games just randomly crash after a few minutes (if they even get that far....)
