I purchased protection for my computer when a super suspect pop-up showed up & I reviewed virus scans & protection. I liked that Bitdefender also has VPN options. Unfortunately, I’ve had to remove the program (very painstakingly, I might add) from my computers because it was preventing previously installed programs from running! It isn’t a crazy program it is a LaTeX word processor & compiler, which is imperative to my graduate program presently. This morning, none of my apps would connect to the internet at all, I finally realised I recognised this obnoxious and exceptionally inconvenient behaviour stemming from the stupid VPN blocking EVERYTHING! Freaking ridiculous! Definitely NOT renewing this once the year runs out. I, literally, don’t have time for this garbage! But this program has cost me more time and caused far more stress and anxiety with its nonsensical antics than I can express. Very disappointed

We’re really sorry to hear about this experience, it’s not how our apps should behave. Conflicts with apps and VPN blocking need investigation. Please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com so we can help sort this out.
