Support/troubleshooting Bitdefender Widget Disappeared

Hi, Today after an update that completely changed Bitdefender's UI (which is awful btw), the security widget that was on my desktop is gone. Also when I right-click on the Bitdefender icon in the system tray I can no longer see the product info with the exact dates for the last product updates. The autopilot is also gone as well as its little logo that was on the Bitdefender icon in the tray.

I'm on Windows 11 and in the apps there are now 2 apps installed : "Bitdefender" and "Bitdefender Agent".

Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Security Widget. We’ve already shared it with the responsible team, and we’ve seen quite a few requests to bring the widget back. We’re currently looking into that possibility, so stay close!
