How to restore (or undo) Bitdefender Optimizer Registry Changes
Bitdefender's OneClick optimizer (part of my Total Security subscription) has this quirk where it tells you to approve changes to the registry, but only gives you a general idea of what will be changed.

Is there any way to turn off nuisance notifications?
When you install an antivirus you expect it to work silently in the background. The BF geeks may like their work so much they think we should sit all day admiring it, but in the real world most people only want to hear from the antivirus when there is a problem. BUT - Bitdefender is littered with annoying notifications. I…
