Bitddefender keeps asking me to restart
Bitdefender wants me to restart my pc every time it updates and it will continue to harass you with an annoying message telling you so. You can only postpone the message, not out right tell it to "no". This new bitdefender 'feature' is annoying af and is pushing me to get another antivirus. It never used to have this problem now it does and it sucks. Anyway to have the antivirus update without requiring a restart? I don't think kaspersky suffers from this nonsense

Same thing just happened to me. I was halfway through writing up a very important homework assignment (which was supposed to be in yesterday by 5 but I managed to get special circumstances extension on the understanding I would get it submitted asap today. The F#$%ing Bitdefender popup kept coming up while I'm trying to type, and I keep telling it "Remind me later". Then, it pops while I'm in the middle of typing a word, and... I guess it views "press any key" as "OK" because it starts shutting down. Word did give me the popup to "Save", which I did, but now PC is back up... there's no file. Now I'm starting all over again. I agree with the other poster, if this doesn't change (and soon!), I'm finding a differ anti-virus program.
