I am using the 2016 BETA. bitdefender_online.exe I tried again from admin account, same issue I have COMODO firewall installed, it has no AV component.

people say that there is a certain delay, though. the paid version gets quicker updates.

is this version cloud based? if so, what protection does it offer when offline?

Hi Shmu26, The Bitdefender standalone Traffic Light scans https as well. thanks, sounds good. just curious about this topic, I know a lot of AVs need to inject a certificate in order to scan inside secure connections, and I have found that this breaks the connection many times, so I often turn it off. How does BD traffic…

I haven't noticed a slowdown

I just installed it successfully on windows 10 pro x64 stable build. It seems to be functioning normally, and is presently performing a full on-demand scan. but how can I know if it is providing adequate protection? another question: in chrome, do I need to add traffic light, or does free edition protect the browser…

I tried it out. It seemed that the CPU was on the rise. actually, I do not see a problem with CPU usage, and chrome is working fine. but if you have MBAE already on your system, you must uninstall it before installing bitdefender. It is not enough to just disable MBAE. You have to actually uninstall it. After bitdefender…

Google for the location of and download Nirsoft's CurrPorts or Sysinternals' TCPView. Either is a stand-alone (aka portable) exe; no install needed. Run and watch for activity by the process vsserve.exe during Internet activity. You'll see connections to BD's Nimbus servers or leased cloud servers, like amazonaws. The…

Hiya, Cloud protection is automatically enabled with all Bitdefender home products, it is not something you can turn on or off. Ro. okay, but how do I ascertain that I am properly connected to the cloud service? I am asking because in the past I tried a couple other AV solutions that were not able to connect properly.

Hiya, It appears that you have everything correct and it should remain valid. If you have any worries you can always contact Bitdefender to check the validity of your license, although it tells you from the Bitdefender GUI (Click the little figure icon at the top and then click "Account Info"). Ro. good news, thanks

Yes its Windows Defender Service Its supposed to be turn off after 15-30 seconds on bootup Sometimes it doesn't and I am yet to hear the reason and workaround from Bitdefender Support Since you have Windows 10 Pro you can turn Windows defender on/off permanently using Group Policy Editor To turn off Windows Defender…

windows 10 x64 I want to add a certain application to the list but it is located in program files (x86), and even though I have enabled show hidden files and folders in windows explorer, I can't get that folder to show in bitdefender. Thus I cannot add the application actually, I think it is not a good idea to run the work…

is MBAE good to combine with TS 2016, or is it superfluous? I tried it out. It seemed that the CPU was on the rise.

This problem has appeared in 13 versions, and developers know about it, just do not want to fix it... Can someone recommend a third-party program compatible with Bitdefender TS 2016 and Windows 10 x64, that provides intrusion protection? And by the way, is MBAE good to combine with TS 2016, or is it superfluous?

Hiya, TrafficLight is a stand-alone app to assist covering your browsing if you don't have a Bitdefender anti-virus program. Bitdefender IS has Safe Search which does the same thing so in my opinion there is no need to have the two together. Ro. thanks. now, what about "cloud" synchronization? trafficlight says it is…

which programs or processes will make the work profile turn on? For me, MS Word is the key work tool, so I added it to the list of programs. But out of curiosity, what is supposed to trigger work profile? Okay, I see that by default, Outlook triggers it. At least sometimes. But that is really bad for me, because I have…
