How do I find advice based on MY version of Bitdefender Total Security?

Craig Chester

in Protection - Malware/ Firmware/etc.

I find many references to Protection - > Antivirus - > Open - > Settings,

where I'm supposed to find options like "Scan flash drives" and "Manage Exceptions",

which are not present. I can't find those options anywhere else, either.

My General options only relate to Passwords, Security widget, Special offers, Recommendations, language, and Dark mode. Advanced options only relate to Proxy server and Product reports.

How do I find, on my version (I see no way to find the version number) to disable the automatic scanning of flash drives. It must be somewhere, but where?

Thanks!

    The question was about the current version. I don't see the current version in the pictures above. How to find it?

    Also, is Total Security a component of Premium Security, or is there a difference?

    My Premium Security contains different items.

    Hello.

    The Bitdefender Premium Security suite includes these programs/services:

    • Bitdefender Total Security (Bitdefender Total Security for Windows, Bitdefender Antivirus for macOS and Bitdefender Mobile Security for Android and iOS)
    • Bitdefender Premium VPN (for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS)
    • Bitdefender Password Manager (for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS) and
    • Bitdefender Premium Priority Support.

    There is no standalone program called Bitdefender Premium Security.

    It is only a suite of different products/services.

    Do you refer to the Bitdefender App as the same as the Bitdefender Dashboared? I cant find the upper right round icon on my dashboard.

    Never Mind. I found the round iconn by right click on B icon in the "show hidden icons' on the toolbar and selecting "show". But that doesn't work if the B icon if it is located on the toolbar proper.
