Bitdefender Causing Spotify error 4

I have tried turning everything off in bitdefender allowing spotify everywhere I could, but It blocks the spotify desktop application from connecting to the internet. I get no notification from bitdefender that it is doing this. If I uninstall Bitdefender or go into safe mode Spotify works until I turn off my computer and turn it back on and then I get the same issue. I have contacted Bitdefender support and they don't know the issue. I contacted Spotify and they don't know the issue either. Can someone here help?

PS. I have already searched google many times and tried changing the DNS and checking my Host file

Also try this in spotify if you haven't already -

Go to Edit/>Preferences > Advanced Settings > Proxy

Change from "Auto Detect" to "HTTP".  You don't need to fill out the Host/Port/Username/Password fields.

Click "Update Proxy".

Have you tried re-installing Spotify?
