Full Scan running for over 18 Hours

Welcome to the Bitdefender Forums.

Depending on the power of your computer or notepad, it can take even days to do a full system scan the first time.  Scan times are limited by HDD/SSD read speed, available RAM, CPU, bus speed, etc.  I once had a notepad here for configuration and malware remediation that took 36 hours to complete a system scan.

If you have a high-powered computer, then that scan time seems excessively long, and might indicate possible HDD/SSD issues.

I hope this helps.  Have a great day.

 Have any of them ever changed any setting in the program.... Every 1 setting you want to change it ask you for a password.... seriously is asking a password once not enough to change every setting in the program.  Why do the program have to be so annoying asking for a password every god dame setting you changed.  Every time you change a function after entering a password it make a beep sound....? does that mean it failed or was it successful.  Do you know this kind of thing, an interface designer should have pick it up.... I mean that what they are paid to do.  If there was one notification pop up for a critical event i would not have wasted 3 hour of my time, thinking it was something else.   Seriously unacceptable.

I am  https://videoder.pro/new to Bitdefender and downloaded   https://tubemate.onl/the software yesterday.   https://snaptube.vip/ I am running the first full scan on my son's machine and it has been running for over 18 hours and is on 48%. Should I let it run or stop and start again? It seems a very long time even for a first scan.
