I must agree. This new forum is a poor substitute for the older better forum. I rarely visit anymore.

I'm getting emails to renew also, which is okay since my renewal date isn't that far off. The problem is that the link in the email takes me to a web page that shows a price $5 higher than the price in the email. Why the deception?

Three days, no response yet.

Same problem here. Just sent an an email to bitsy@bitdefender.com.

Recent discussion The problem with the recent discussion list isn't that it is unclear how to find it, it's that it includes too many irrelevant posts. All I'm interested in is the Bitdefender 2020 section. This was super simple in the old forum. The quote above highlights another problem with the new forum. I can't trim…

We definitely need a better way to see where the new posts are. All I'm interested in is the Bitdefender 2020 section and I don't want to have to root around through each subsection of 2020 looking for new posts.

What is being read? Is it causing the heads to move? Someone here is claiming it's causing hard drive failure but I'm a bit skeptical.

I get the same thing. Suspiciously convenient for BD that one hand doesn't know what the other is doing.

I tested this a little more. If I have Scan-Flash-Drives set to Disabled, then Bitdefender doesn't cause any trouble. If I have Scan-Flash-Drives set to Ask-Every-Time, then when I plug in a USB hard drive Bitdefender doesn't ask to scan, but then Bitdefender also prevents ejection of the USB hard drive.

It shouldn't be scanning anything because I have it set to "ask every time" and it didn't ask.

I agree too. I had to disable this feature to stop it from commenting out things I added there.

Will do, thanks.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't even know what Avangate was. I found the auto renewal option and disabled it.

Here are the instructions I received form Dashlane. Our team thinks that these crashes are related to Bitdefender injecting a DLL file into our process when Dashlane is running. Could you please follow the steps below to see if it helps? * Open the main interface of Bitdefender then click on the menu button from the upper…

Same problem here. I had to add both dashlane.exe and daslaneplugin.exe to the advanced threat defense white list. That seems to have stopped the dashlane crashes.

Received the email this time and sent the requested info and files. Thanks

How do I stop this madness?

My original thought that the problem was tied to coming out of sleep mode was wrong. I have a program that I want to run daily from a scheduled task. If I run the program by double clicking on it, it runs fine and bit defender has no problem with it. If I do an on-demand scan on the program, bit defender has no problem…

I can't find anything called Events. Where is that at?

Not sure why, but today it's working correctly for me. Anyway. Windows 10 version 1607 build 14393.693 Bitdefender antivirus plus 2017 build 21.0.24.53 Chrome version 56.0.2924.87

There is a setting in bitdefender View Modules - Vulnerability settings - Media autorun. Have you tried that?

Same problem here. It is impossible to disable safe pay. Please fix.

Mine will do that if I have a CD in the CD drive when I boot. Would probably also do that if a flash drive is inserted.

I had this problem also using Chrome on Windows 10. The fix was to disable "Experimental QUIC protocol" in Chrome.
