I dont need to see that you blocked a popup. What I do need is to work without a useless notification blocking me from using my own keyboard. What to you want me to do with that information anyway? Give you a cookie and say youre a good boy for doing your job?

To begin with, please use decent language. If we can agree on this, we can contine the conversation in a polite and pleasant manner, as expected. We'll do our best to help here, but please show some respect to this community and its members.
In regards to the notifications, please share more details with us, what is the specific message displayed in the notification, at what point does it occur and what is the frecquency of the notification. Screenshots would be very helpful, if possible.
Would you please please please would be ever so kind and help me out in resolving the latest issue relating to the pop-up for the Password Manager I am seeing in the wonderous product that is Bitdefender Total Security? I have implemented all @Gjoksi extremely helpful tips regarding popups and I'm extremely sorry to report they do not work. I am unfortunately still seeing these popups. I humbly request a working solution to this vexing issue.
I thought the first reply was in an incorrect forum and to ensure I was as helpful as possible to the fantastic people on this site thought I would comment on another, more appropriate sub-forum, where I learnt one must be very polite when receiving a poor service for a product and I have paid a lot of money for.
So be clear as I have this product on 4 PCs I will be expected to click on this less than helpful popup 12 times, even though I clicked to disable the recommendation. That is useful information to receive.
I will update you on the progress. What does it happen exactly when you click on "x" to dismiss the notification? Does it go away and pop up again afterwards? Is the button responsive as expected? What is the display interval? How many times have you dismissed the notification on a single device so far?
I appreciate that you are sharing your thoughts here with us. A fix has been deployed by the developers via an automated updated and the Password Manager notification can now be disabled completely by toggling off the 'recommendation notifications' switch.
I also will not be renewing my subscription simply because there seems to be no control over this - It's either on and I assume I'm being protected with some seriously intrusive popups or, it's off. There is no functional/working trusted apps list to shut bitdefender up.

Welcome to the Bitdefender Forums. You can check by clicking the "Notifications" button on the lower left side of the main GUI. On my computer, they go back ten days. When a Quick Scan was run , there should be a notification of that fact.
Hi Phil, thanks for the quick and helpful response. No scans showing there, but the whole notification list only goes back 2 days to the 25th. I also don't see any options for setting how far back that notification list goes. I think it may have been on the 25th when I created my Work profile, maybe that cleared everything old? I guess time will tell!
Regards,
Simeon
It is possible that switching profiles might have cleared your notification history. I have never used it, so I can't enlighten you. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable, like our Forum Administrator, @Alexandru_BD , will join this topic.
It's clear at this point that the quick scans have indeed been disabled by having a Work Profile active. Hard to understand why they don't offer an option to have scans run in the background with perhaps a badge on the system tray icon indicating it has run a quick scan, or something like that.
Seems to be a lot of information online that indicates Windows Defender is just as good these days, perhaps without all the bells and whistles, but for basic malware and virus protection. Do you have any thoughts on that to offer?
Windows Defender is adequate. Bitdefender scored Number 1 for 2023, the last full year of testing, as you can see from the independent and well-respected AV-Comparatives Lab. Windows Defender was an "also ran."
I consider my data and programs to be very important. I want them protected by the best possible security solution. Bitdefender is constantly a top performer in credible independent tests and has been for years.
I also have a very robust backup strategy, which I consider to be even more important than the choice of security solution. No one product can protect against every malware variant, with new ones being released daily. If your computer is compromised, recovery is possible and easy if you have recent backups and a recovery boot disk for your chosen backup program.
Thanks for taking the time to share all of that, the link is also extremely helpful, I hadn't come across that one. Appears Kaspersky is their Product of the Year for 2023, may look into them again, used to have them then dropped them but I don't recall why.
Thank you for posting back. The choice of security product is yours to make. I am pleased that my information and opinion were appreciated. You should really check the AV-Comparatives Lab test results for the last five years. You will see that Bitdefender consistently ranks very highly. Several products, Bitdefender included, jockey for the very top position every year. No one security app among the highest-ranking products manages to secure the top spot every year. The differences between the top contenders are not all that significant from year to year.
As with most commercial products, altering program files is not supported and modifying and/or distributing modified files may be against the applicable EULA for the software your are attempting to modify.
welcome csalgau,
how are you
I'm fine, what about you
Thank you for your kind reply
Did you know that the most competitive protection programs for Bitdefender products support Arabic language such as:
- ESET NOD32 Antivirus products
- Avast products
- Kaspersky products 2017
- 360 Total Security
- Malwarebytes AdwCleaner tool
As for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, the program was translated into Arabic by me and a copy of the language files was sent to the company
They may now put it in their next products
I prefer Defender products and I was using their product 2015 and also 2016 because the version supports Arabic
Can you instruct me how to contact technical support? Any email or link
please?
again. Thank you for your kind reply
أما بالنسبة لمنتج شركة Malwarebytes Anti-Malware تم ترجمة البرنامج إلى اللغة العربية من قبلي وأرسلت نسخة من ملفات اللغة إلى الشركة
وهم الآن قد يضعونها في منتجاتهم القادمة
Hello everyone,
I apologize for disturbing
So I use one of the competing programs for your program because it supports Arabic
I would like to assist you with the translation
But I did not find anyone telling me how to open or edit files
thank you
