Windows Security (W10) keeps asking me to update Bitdefender but its up to date
Windows Security is asking me to update Bitdefender.. My dashboard's Autopilot in BTS suggest updating Bitdefender and when clicking "Update now" an updating process goes on, showing me my product update is complete and up to date.
Immediately after finishing the update, autopilot triggers a new update recommendation and the same process is repeated. Cant get rid of neither the update recommendation or the Windows Security warning.

Hello.
First, take screenshot(s) of the issue and create a log file on your Windows device using Bitdefender Support Tool, by following these steps:
Next, contact Bitdefender Consumer Support by e-mail here (scroll down to the bottom of the page):
with short description of the issue.
After that, you will get an automated reply by the Bitdefender Customer Care Team, with your ticket number.
Now, in reply to that automated reply, you can send the screenshot(s) you already took and the log file you already created in the first step.
Since you are all done, just wait for the support engineers to investigate your issue and find a solution to fix the issue.
Remember that the screenshot(s) and the log file will help a lot to the support engineers for better and faster investigation on your issue and finding a solution.
Regards.

I was trying to convince myself to due the whole report thing but there's clear evidence that this is a Bitdefender issue and apparently a reinstall would fix the solution.
Sure enough, as soon as I reinstalled (saving my config and updates) Bitdefender found new updates and Windows Defender is now with a green check mark.
I would not disable Windows Defender, that is one of the worst recommendations I ever read.. I know the forum is basically helpful for tips and tricks and its not an actual customer support place, thanks to @Gjoksi, I now know the real process that I should follow and.. will follow if something happens again.
Thanks everyone!

Your suggestion did not solve the problem, BitDefender still cries for Windows Defender update which is up to date.

Logs have been uploaded and have the ID 1007449135.
Reinstalling BitDefender is not a solution for me because I have a problem with several devices, not only one.

Maybe it stayed, but I am not satisfied with the proposed solution.

Don't get me wrong, but since I have the same problem on 3 devices and a friend reported the same to me on his own, something is probably wrong.
If I had 100 devices with this problem, would I also be advised to reinstall all of them?
