Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022) FPS Drops With Advanced Threat Defense. Any Help?

In Call of Duty Modern Warfare II we see low FPS since the latest update.

If you add the game to the exceptions of Advanced Threat Defense, the problems go away and the game is as smooth as it was a week ago.

see multiple reddit entries on the issue as well.

    This is a known issue and bitdefender developers are working on this. Current resolution is to set the file as an exception.

    @ThisIsMachine thank you for joining the conversation here and I'm really sorry to hear that.

    We really didn't know about this behaviour until it was reported on the forum by one of our members who referred to a reddit thread in his post. I saw a pattern emerging and got in touch with our engineers and development teams as soon as it was clear to me that something was going on. The community helped us a lot here and we've managed to gather crucial information from the affected users to find the root cause and it has been acknowledged that the FPS drop is related to the ATD module.

    Surely, other users will find this thread helpful and a workaround is available, until the teams can sort this out.

    UPDATE: This is fixed since last evening, confirmed for Call of Duty and Wildhearts.

    May I kindly ask you to test the game with ATD enabled and let us know your findings?

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
