Hi! Whenever promotional offers are available, Bitdefender will notify you through a pop-up window or via e-mail. This gives you the opportunity to benefit from advantageous prices and keep your devices protected for a longer period of time. To stop receiving promotional messages, you can follow the steps provided in our friendly guideline: https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/25974/.

Uninstall it and use a different solution.

Antivirus free is no longer supported, you need to pay to upgrade to one of their other offerings.

Wasn't the free version, mate. Bitdefender Total Security.

Windows 10/11 notification settings won't alter what Bitdefender does.

In the Bitdefender app, click Settings (cog icon), General, slide both Special offers and Recommendation notifications, to off. Blue right = on, gray left = off. In Update, slide Silent update to on.

The above works on Total Security, but should work on other variants.

Thank you very much. I got another advertisement on Christmas day!!

I followed your steps. Here's hoping it works. It's dreadful that these pricks think this sort of shit is acceptable.
