r/BitDefender

Been watching twitch most of the day no problem but bitdefender just started sending tons of suspicious connection blocked notifications. The notifications stop the moment I stop watching streams on twitch. They are all to do with unmatched security certificates for the same address. The address Is for ff5151.rufio.hls.live-video.net.

Is anyone else getting them or should I be worried my pc has been compromised. Sorry if I'm being dumb not exactly the most knowledgeable when it comes to things like this.

Bitdefender reporting 90.3 GB for a single Windows Security Update (KB5089549)?

Hi everyone,

I just ran a vulnerability scan in Bitdefender Total Security and it's flagging Windows Update KB5089549 as a "High" risk. What caught my eye is the size: 90.3 GB for a security update.

Windows Update itself shows the update is pending a restart, but doesn't mention this massive size. Is this a known reporting bug in Bitdefender or should I be concerned about my system files?

Specs:

  • CPU: Intel i5-14600K
  • GPU: RTX 3070
  • OS: Windows 11 (Insiders/Dev build based on the version number in the screenshot)

Thanks for any insights!

Enterprise edition updating hourly

Is this normal? I feel like every few hours its updating and takes like 50% of my cpu usage to update.. really annoying.

I tried various different ways to try to get rid of this pop up message every time I turn on my PC but had no luck.

I tried to find it in the registry editor but couldn't locate it.

Any suggestions?

Has anybody else gotten a weird app installed called "Remove" but with the Bitdefender VPN icon? I checked the file location and it seems to be in the same folder as the normal VPN. Could this be a glitch?

I'm trying to install BitDefender on a Windows 11 machine. When I get to this screen, it doesn't render properly. The three gray boxes (Security/VPN/SecurePass) are not aligned and display on top of each other. The blue "Set up services" button appears to fall below the fold and I can't get to it. I've tried changing resolution and scaling but the screen render doesn't shift to allow me to click on it.

I've called support who had a limited help script. They had to 'escalate' which has resulted in email exchanges asking me to try things I've already tried...so I'm turning to this community for help.
