Blocked ports - no notification happening.
Hello With Bitdefender firewall disabled I can connect and use a particular device perfectly well (I know the IP but can't tell what port it is using). With Bitdefender firewall enabled I can no longer connect my device - which is by design of course (doing its job) , but nowhere can I find any log or anything within…

Another day, Bitdefender VPN installs itself - AGAIN
After around 6 months of being Bitdefender VPN free (I do not want this app!) it has decided to install itself again on Windows 10 on all of my machines without my permission. A game of whack a mole, pretty ironic from an anti-virus product :( So I'm uninstalling AGAIN - the message says Bitdefender VPN will be PERMANTLY…

Fitbit Exclusions
Hello I had problems transferring files to my fitbit watch and I found if I disable Bitdefender shield it works. So how can I exclude.... a) The device itself (via IP address, although I'm not sure if it's going to remain static!) The windows Fitbit apps itself, which is a metro app not a desktop one. Thanks

Blocked when trying to access server via UNC using OpenVPN
Hello I have OpenVPN up and running fine, however if I try to access a server on my LAN via VPN, using file explorer and a UNC path (e.g. \\myserver\share) in Win10, I get a error code 0x80070035 ("The network path was not found"). Disabling the firewall altogether makes it work without issue. How can I stop this blockage?…

Thunderbird Toolbar and IMAP - Business as usual??
Does this version finally support IMAP for antispam etc? Does the Thunderbird toolbar/enabling SSL scanning still kill Thunderbird? (I've seen it corrupt mailboxes). Can I turn on/turn off scanning for firewire devices? You know what a lot of customer want, not bloatware. My renewal comes up in 28 days so I guess I will…

Has Anybody Managed To Get Thunderbird Working With Antispam?
The Toolbar does not work period (some buttons such as marking as just don't function at all), Also you need to turn off "Scan SSL" otherwise TB goes haywire. Why is this advertised feature still bugged? Thanks..

2017 application not renewing - no issue with 2016 version.
I've just renewed my Family subscription. I notice my Win10 PC with the 2016 product has added an extra 365 days to the BD application so that's no problem. However this hasn't happened with the Win10 PC where I have the 2017 version installed, this is what I've done: * Ran "Update now" in the application. * Gone to…

Full System scan progress bar stuck at 99%
Downloaded BD "Total" Security today for Windows 10 The algorithm needs to be reviewed that displays percent complete on the circular progress bar whilst doing a system scan. Right now the scan is still going on my SSD's, but the progress bar has been stuck on 99% for hours now. It looks likely it will complete but I have…

Search Advisor Freezes Windows
This took me several days to work out. Windows 10 Pro 64 bit would continuously freeze when browsing. It generally happens when changing tabs within the browser (Chrome/Fixfox/IE etc). Nothing logged in the event viewer. Eventually after much experimentation I turned off search advisor in Total Security 2016 and stability…
