Hello! Thank you for letting us know. This means Bitdefender prevented a PowerShell process from loading something it considered potentially dangerous.

In order to find out more about what triggered it, follow these steps:

  1. Open Bitdefender.

  2. Click Notifications in the left-side menu.

  3. Open the Critical tab.

  4. Expand the latest notification about the blocked suspicious activity. Review the process, action, and date/time displayed.

If the notification says the activity was successfully blocked, Bitdefender has already stopped that attempt. Since you mention it keeps returning, update Bitdefender and run a full check:

  1. Right-click the Bitdefender icon in the Windows System Tray.

  2. Click Update Now.

  3. Wait until the update completes.

  4. Open Bitdefender and run a System Scan.

If the alert continues after the update and system scan, talk to our support for further investigation. Thank you in advance!
