So It Seems The Security Widget Is Gone For Good?

Hello, it is we who made a massive mobilization for the return of the Widget, you may not have seen it but Bitdefender will reinstate the Security Widget from 2021.
They acknowledged their mistake, but it would have been better not to delete it and ask the users for their opinion.
You can see if his return has been officially announced.
The mobilization community on the Security Widget!

It is with immense joy that we are proud to announce, thanks to a developer at Bitdefender, the return of the security Widget tomorrow on a global scale after 6 months of absence and after a massive mobilization of users the return of the Security Widget!
It is scheduled for tomorrow but will take a few days to arrive!

Has anyone had the update with the widget yet?

Not yet, may be they would have been finalizing and doing a final testing before releasing it in the wild. @BogdanB_BD, @Andy_BD, any update to when the worldwide product update will be available.

Usually updates arrive fairly quickly and nothing is strange especially since Bogdan has said he will let us know once the immediate date is known.
There is still a positive point is that they removed the notion of Widget in this article

The update is coming tomorrow January 18th, told me technical support, there was a delay in the update

The update system crap I'm only at version 25.0.10.52 while it looks like the latest version is 25.0.14.55. Except an update took place this evening at 22:21 but still nothing is the version 25.0.10.52 which has been updated.
Has someone received the latest update and can upload a screenshot of the Widget presence in order to win the petition?
I had to wait almost 2 months for the last update when I removed the Widget, it had been removed in July and I had the update in October. So guys we're not ready to have it.
As long as I do not have his return in front of me, we will continue the mobilization

Completely uninstalled BDTS, rebooted, made sure all Windows Updates and Driver Updates are current, made sure all browsers (Edge, Chrome, FireFox) are updated to latest version, re-installed BDTS from Central. Still no widget.
And on a side-note - Search Advisor does not work in any browser. No "TrafficLight" icons next to links in search results. Even tried installing / enabling TrafficLight extension on all browsers and in both Google and Bing results. No joy. This has been an on-and-off issue with BDTS for years now. smh...

I uninstalled Bitdefender only yesterday because I was doing a major W10 update and it was recommended to do this! Anyway that aside I reinstalled via bitdefender central and got version 25.010.25. Seems odd they don't have the latest build on their downloads.

Even I also have the same version installed on my another PC. Tried installing BTS with US vpn server & still had the same version. Sounds weird. We will have to wait, because we cannot argue on the thing that bitdefender have not released the widget, since some people have it available now. So, I guess we need to wait for specific batch updates & no one is for sure in which batch category update will our PC will be ranked.

The security widget is back on my computer. I got the update here in Canada this morning.
Thank you to Bitdefender for listening to your customers and restoring the Security Widget. I also appreciate the efforts of my fellow Bitdefender who lobbied so hard, and in such numbers, that we were heard. Thanks especially to @Gauthey .
I am a happy camper once again! Have a great day.

Thanks to my mobilization team since September until now we have had a battle every day in the development department that had to be undertaken and of course spam the forum and the various Bitdefender platforms to succeed in being heard.
But in the end it is together community that we have all succeeded because without all of us THERE IS NOTHING TO FORGET THE USER AND THE MAIN VICTOR.

The Widget is back as of February 2021 Go to Settings and click on "Security Widget."

YES!! Finally, new version arrived on all PC's.
Really good to see that "heartbeat" again, all you have to do to enable / disable it is right-click on the BD icon in the task bar.
Great effort everyone! :)
