Include An Option to Disable Bitdefender Anti-Theft
It is good to have some kind of control when someone steals or you lose your device but in my opinion it shouldnt be forced and not possible to disable. Not everyone wants there to be an option to wipe their device with 1 click or track/lock it. For me personally i just dont feel safe knowing that if anyone with malicious…

How to start the VPN app minimized
Good evening. Because I choose to never shut down Windows — as that way I can continue my work right where I left off — I'm limited to restarts caused by Windows Update. So whenever the system resumes from hibernation, I find the main VPN window open, ready to reconnect. Since this happens so often, it's become annoying to…

With regard to the new Bitdefender interface on MacOS, how can you tell when definition updates are successfully downloaded?
On the prior interface, the activity "overview" showed when updates were installed. Can we expect the same functionality in this new interface? Or somewhere else? I have been running 36 hours with no visible definition updates yet, but I allow for the possibility of this being silent in the background. Would still be nice…
