Bitdefender AV update details
Hello, I'm curious how Bitdefender AV updates work. In addition to the build updates, can the scanning engine updates improve / fix some operation bugs?

Nor can I see hidden folders through the File…

Autorenew - Bitdefender taking the scammers road ?
Despite the title being maybe aggressive, this is a fair description of the reality I lived: I am a Customer of Bitdefender since 5 years.

Está Aprovado Para Uso Pessoal
O Bitdefender não é intrusivo, não trava o PC, não corrompe o Windows, não provoca lentidão e é simples para usar. O detalhe fica pela necessidade dos desenvolvedores colocarem os Pop-up de solicitação de autorização de execução em forma de lista para o usuário não ter que ficar clicando nos pop-up durante a varredura. Uma…
