VPN automatic startup
Hi, I've upgraded to Premium VPN but cannot get the VPN to connect automatically on startup despite this being configured in the settings. I have to manually connect every time. How can I configure the VPN to start with Windows? I'm also not seeing a VPN icon in the system tray. Is this correct? Many thanks, Sean

If I had a pound for every time a scheduled scan in Bitdefender actually ran, I'd have £3. What is so difficult about this? Time and time again I'm told to reinstall, uninstall, recreate, delete and then .... nothing. I don't understand why such a critical feature of an AV application keeps being broken.

Where do we contact support?
The latest issue I'm having with Bitdefender is that the Anti-Spam feature turns itself back on after being switched off. What happened to the link to support on the app itself?
