Does Bitdefender 2016 change any win setting on installation?

hi there, is anyone using bitdefender 2016 total security pack on win7?

upon initial installation of the package, have you noticed if it made any change to either a default windows setting or a user defined setting? ok apart from firewall. if you did could you elaborate please

man but it installs with autopilot on by default. it's too late. already changes made, and i have to go over each setting again. and who knows which other area.

Hi Magna,
In my humble opinion, i'd never pay for an AV.
Use the free version they supply and the built in windows firewall,
common sense provides the rest of the support you pay for.

PS i use BD free

hey yo giving bitchdefender a try for a couple of months. under normal circumstances i would agree with u torchwood. so far, it's ok.

thank you very much for the heads up callender. yes i got the manual already. i was concerned with overall installation not just the autopilot. https://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=69722

a note for anyone installing Total Security for the first time; more so than other AV i noticed, this one really loves to sniff out keygen lol. so if there are tested ones on ur pc u wish to retain, u should make a copy and keep it outside ur current system, or remember to restore it from the events panel cos u won't be fast enough to exclude it- upon completion of initial installation, it auto runs a scan. but u can cancel the scan of course. some keygen, it will delete on the spot without waiting for ur decision on action.

my bitdefender is not pirated. i keep several old keygen executables in my pc for other purposes.

Np.

if you must know, this comprised files i had transferred from my IBM Compatible XT/AT days. i believe they were used to overcome copy protection (during play) for mid 1980s dos-based games like SSI's 'Pool of Radiance' or 'Sword of Aragorn', when i was still a boy. Using the keygen on edited versions of the games, you didn't have to lug around the stupid manual to search for random passwords. Now these games have long since become Abandonware, i think for 15-20 years maybe longer. the keygen did not exist till mid 90s (i think). These games hardly needed to be 'pirated' anymore. You can find out more about them from sites like Home of the Underdogs etc.

or if u prefer, replace 'keygen' in my last 2 posts with 'executables identified as false-positives', since the significance of its mention in this discussion mainly concerned its status as false-positives. Another file would be 'WirelessKeyView.exe' from NirCMD's x64 tools zip. now this file was also removed from my system as a security threat. You can read more about its function at their official site. it does not concern piracy.

last but not least, i merely mentioned 'keygen' i made no personal correlation of its use to any action involving piracy. if you still think keygen necessarily = piracy, i suggest you ease up; it's ... not too late to broaden ur scope on this subject.
