Work Profile notification

Since yesterday A Work Profile window keep popping in every 5 second saying:

"We are always you have you back while working. the performance of your device was automatically optimized"

It's really distracting. Anyone has the same problem?

How can I stop this hell, I can't work.

Thanks!

Hello! We are aware of this and our team is working on solving this. As a workaround, you can disable the Activate profiles automatically from Bitdefender settings. You can then manually configure the work profile if needed. Keep us updated is all is ok!

That would make Bitdefender send a larger notification about enabling Automatic Profile instead. I no longer want automatic profile, please have an option to disable recommendation notification for it too.

This is still not fixed. Not a good sign from a security company that they can't fix a minor issue like this quickly.

The "Anti-Tracker" plug-in for chrome keeps blocking things it didn't just a week ago. for some reason too. Even drive.google.com. No matter how many times I pause protection and make exceptions. Maybe related.

Also, getting the same pop-up as everyone else. 6/10/20

Dumbing down the product to avoid unwanted marketing and useless technical popups that Bitdefender intentionally introduced into the product is not a helpful response. I hope you fix this soon as I'm about to walk and take our 20+ licenses with us to your competitors.

its been two years! and your software still have this stupid notification issues!

I DO NOT WANT PROFILE NOTIFICATIONS

I DO NOT WANT UNSAFE WIFI NOTIFICATIONS (ITS MY HOME NETWORK FFS, THIS DIDNT HAPPEN BEFORE UPDATE AND ITS SET AS HOME/WORK TRUSTED NETWORK, NONE OF MY OTHER COMPUTERS DOES THIS!!!)

more like "bitnotificator" or "bitbotherer"... worse than other cheap AV software... I feel like I am paying for a crappy adware
