    The daily updates....


    Or a Windows bug ;)

  • Dear Partogi,


    Can you please download Windows install Cleanup. Install it and run it afterwards. How many entries with BitDefender in the name you find?


    The size always increase with a few MB's when a product upgrade is installed.


    Kind regards,

    thanks to you guys :D .


    niels i found only 1, BitDefender Total Security 2009 [12.0.11.5]. what should i do next?

  • Dear Partogi,


    Can you please see if you find an entry or entries that looks like this: 12.X.XX.X ?


    If you found multiple entries than the removal of an earlier version or the installation failed. That can cause a very big size when you take a look at software.


    Kind regards,

    Dear Partogi,


    Ok, that is good. I mean windows installer didn't get mixed up with BitDefender installer package.


    I didn't bought BitDefender Total Security 2009 but upgraded from version 2008. So the size differ is that I don't have the online back-up modules.


    My size is 170 MB.


    Can you please do this go to start,my computer,Program Files,open Common Files,BitDefender and take a look at BitDefender Threat Scanner folder. How big is that folder? It shouldn't be a few gigabytes.


    Kind regards,


    Niels

  • C:\Program Files\Common Files\BitDefender. at BitDefender Threat Scanner folder size is 194 MB. btw i have online backup.

  • I am here and trying to understand what this question is for . Do you have a 200 meg hard drive do u constantly check program installed sizes what diffrence does it make its bigger so what. Maybe u put a movie in there. Either way i think you need to find something else to do like teach yourself ms office take ur mind off it.
