WiFI Vulnerability Scan claims no password when there is one
I recently installed Bitdefender on several family pc's and laptops. A vulnerability scan indicated there was a low level threat with my Wi-Fi.

Bitdefender and icon-pdf files
Each time I boot my computer (Win 10 22H2) bitdefender appears to create a bunch of PDF files that seem to be icons. I don't suppose it is damaging or take much time but writing to the SSD more-or-less randomly doesn't seem like good practice. One example is this: C:\Program Files\Bitdefender\Bitdefender Security…

Bitdefender Internet Security and Windows 11
Hello, As a long time user, I have a current Bitdefender Internet Security subscription. The user guide in the product (dated 2023) doesn't list Windows 11 as a supported OS - it stops at W10. Does that mean that Internet Security is not supported by Bitdefender on W11 ? Thanks.

Is BD Antivirus Free actually free or not?
I used BD Free for a few years before the announcement about a year ago that it was no longer being offered. I switched around a few other free offerings but was never particularly satisfied with any of them.

Android - Password Manager (Wallet)
I learnt today that BitDefender does not have any solution for Android phones accessing the user's Wallet in Password Manager section of the wonderful Security packs. The Password Manager on the PC is fairly robust and has a very polite GUI - it's such a shame it is not presently incorporated in the Mobile Security App.…

How to stop "Manage your passwords with Bitdefender Password Manager" annoying popup!
I've seen this annoying popup more than 50 times now! There is no option to stop Bitdefender displaying this annoying popup.

I have a scheduled scan but somethings is not right!
I have a scheduled full system scan set for Sundays @ 1700. When I checked the status today (Sunday 9th March) at ~1730, the scan was shown as completed! The log showed the correct date, a completion time of 1724 (!), but that the scan took more than 5 hours (normal). How come? My PC time and date settings are correct.

When I go subscriptions on the central app, it says…
