How are passwords stored in bit defender wallet
Everytime the computer is started/restarted, a pop up comes post windows login that asks for user to sign in to bit defender wallet. There should be an option to disable this pop up.
Reason:
The pop up gives a hacker/infiltrator/authorities the hint that the computer has stored all passwords. If only the attacker manages to extract bit defender password all password would be access-able. So in order to deter any curiosity, there should be option to block these pop ups.
Question:
Does the bitdefender stores the password locally or in their own server for sync?
If the passwords are stored at your server then are the passwords stored encrypted? Or in simple words can you access my passwords?

The passwords stored in Bitdefender wallet can either be stored only locally or in sync for all of the devices where your subscription is installed. The passwords are encrypted (AES-256) and they are visible only if you open Bitdefender Wallet within the product.
The pop-up you mentioned can be stopped as follows:
-Open Bitdefender
-Go to Privacy
-Click on Settings from Password manager
-Select the tab " Security Settings "
-Select the option Do not ask for my master password1
