Hi Roxana I'm adding to this thread now. I'll see how it goes now I've unchecked the WiFi Security Advisor. The question I had in my previous thread was, why would BD advise me of an unsafe network when I know it's WPA2-PSK. What exactly constitutes a "safe" network? It also says "%s is an unsafe Wi-Fi", so what is %s.…

Yeah I already had all those Notifications/Recommendations turned off as they were annoying also, but this thing still persists and pops up even when you have been connected to a WiFi network then disconnect. Yes it is recent so something they've done in one of the latest updates. Cheers

I have to admit that I've been going to & fro between BD and others a few times. I too recently received an email about a ticket I lodged back in July. It's one I followed up a number of times all without success. They did apologise and added 6 months to the subscription so some brownie points for that. I tried out…

Have completely uninstalled BD and did a reinstall just to give it a second chance. It did fix up the issue where it wouldn't save any of the settings, but it still slows apps, and browsing.

Yes I hear what you are saying. Yes BD updated itself automatically to 2019. I haven't yet abandoned BD as I still have a subscription. There have been other issues like failed addin for Outlook 2016. Have had a support request open and they just don't respond with any updates. New version uses a lot more memory, so yes…

Thanks cee-naa. Yes have been there. I would expect a button labelled "OK Got it" would mean you didn't get it anymore :-) It looks like there is a bigger issue as setting changes I make are not being saved between reboots. I may look at doing a complete reinstall but at the moment I'm trialing Kaspersky to see how that…

I would have to agree. I have been Using Bitdefender for some time after moving from Avast. Avast also made the mistake of turning a relatively low resource product into a bloated and slow app with poor UI. Like you I found 2018 to be very good and unobtrusive. I have experienced the same issues, and I'm sick of having to…
