So It Seems The Security Widget Is Gone For Good?
I just downloaded and installed the latest version of Bitdefender Total Security, and right off the bat I'm off-put by the atrocious new UI.

How Do You Quickly Add Multiple Files To The Exceptions List?
I'm trying to add over 30 items (such as Cheat Engine components) to the Advance Threat Defense and Ransomware exceptions list. How would I do this quickly?

So....what Happens Again When I Shutdown Instead Of Reboot?
I'm normally very good with rebooting my computer right away when it is necessary. Windows needs to reboot for updates? I drop everything and reboot. Installed a new driver? Reboot.

Is Bitdefender Having An Identity Crisis?
It seemed like Bitdefender was dumping the labeling of their antivirus products by years. The 2014 edition, instead of being labeled "Bitdefender Internet Security 2014", was simply called "Bitdefender Internet Security" (dropping the year). This is common among antivirus companies. For example Avira, AVG, and Kaspersky…

Firewall Settings: What They Mean, And What They Do.
All right. I'm new to BitDefender. I have searched for these topics, but the ones I've found either don't explain this very well, or aren't even answered. All right, here they are: Stealth Mode- what is this and what does it do? Generic- what is this and what does it do? Thank you for your support.
