  • Oh, wow. Just wow. No wonder I decided to chuck the rest of my 2 year Bitdefender license and go with Kaspersky (where Windows 10 live tiles actually WORK). BD Tech Support - enough of this blame game. Corporately, you should have contacts with Microsoft tech support. Why don't you directly contact THEM directly?…

  • I got the printer exclusion set, so that part is out of the picture. Is there a way (most like;ly not due to the very nature of firewall protection) to speed up the BD processing of printer documents? It now takes close to a minute to (wirelessly) travel the three feet from my PC to the printer. I suspect it has to do with…
    in Setting Ffirewall To All Epson Workforce Comment by squibbon November 2015
  • I think that this is not a solution but a temporary solution, because Bitdefender 2015 does not block live tiles, even if "Windows Explorer trafic on HTTP" is Deny. If this rule is the default in Firewall, I think that there should be no such conflicts with live tiles in Start menu Bitdefender 2015 also had the issue. I…

  • @urOk, check if these settings would fix the error: Bitdefender> Firewall> Adapters> Network type: Home/Office, Stealth: Off, Generic: On. If not, you can also try: Firewall> Rules> Show General Rules> Windows Explorer Traffic on HTTP: Allow Never heard about changing the firewall adapter settings. In the previous threads,…

  • Ok, but why BIS 2015 doesn't block them? I think that it's bug anyway... On some systems, the Live Tiles just keep repeating the same screen over and over again, but they never update.

  • Bitdefender has had this issue with Windows Live Tiles dating back to BD 2014. http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=47309 http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=53031 http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=55525 You have to allow HTTP traffic on Windows Explorer in Firewall Rules to get the…

  • Hi I have just gone through the procedures to remove BIS2015 and to install BIS2016 on Windows 10 - 64 bit. All appears (so far) to be OK. I get a notification that 'The Windows Security Center Service is not working' I just need to ask if this is normal ? Presumably it is - because BIS2016 is in control ? Thank you While…
    in Installed Bis2016 On Windows 10 64 Bit Comment by squibbon October 2015
  • I have experienced the same issue with my Epson printer with Bitdefender Internet Security 2013, 2014, 2015 and now 2016. This is another one of those on-going things that Bitdefender never seems to fix. You need to add the IP address of your Epson printer as a network exception in the BD Firewall settings. The following…

  • Uh, how would downloading Total Security help when he's running Bitdefender Internet Security? Try this link - http://www.bitdefender.com/solutions/internet-security.html

  • Well, unencrypted user passwords are really disturbing to me. Was this "just a mistake" or Bitdefenders default behavior? Will Bitdefender use password encryption in the future? Is there any official statement to this attack? Thank you. More discussion on the hacking issue here:…
    in Bitdefender Hacked, Hacker Attempts Blackmail Comment by squibbon August 2015
  • To be honest, this is the first report we get with Bitdefender 2015. However, I am not 100% sure that koral is using classic line 2015 and not 2014. It would have helped to receive his answer first and then ensure he does have the latest product. If anyone else is having problems with Live Tiles in Windows 8 and is using…
    in Windows 8 Live Tiles Bing Not Working With Bitdef Firewall Comment by squibbon July 2015
  • I have now uninstalled/reinstalled Bitdefender. The scheduled scan still does not execute at the appointed date/time. Just out of curiosity, I installed a trial of ESET Smart Security while I had Bitdefender uninstalled and tried scheduling a scan with it, just to rule out it being an issue with my computer. The ESET scan…

  • Good Lord, this issue STILL hasn't been fixed? I reported it to Bitdefender 2014 a YEAR ago.

  • Update - it appears that the Bitdefender firewall is only blocking Bing apps (News, Weather, Finance, etc.).
