BitDefender Antivirus Edition Has Blocked A Page

I recently encountered an issue with my BitDefender antivirus edition, which blocked a page and prevented me from accessing it. Although I was able to resolve the problem by uninstalling the software through the Control Panel and using one of their official uninstalling tools, I still experienced some issues with permissions in Windows.

It appears that this problem may be caused by BitDefender itself, which is likely a bug that will be addressed in future updates. In the meantime, I plan to switch to another free antivirus solution as I do not have the time or willingness to deal with such issues.

In addition to the blocked page, I also encountered some problems with folders in both system and program directories. These folders would not allow me to take full ownership of them despite being the administrator on the system.

Unfortunately, BitDefender does not provide a way to restore quarantined files from within the program itself. When I tried to restore the file by pressing the 'restore' icon, an error message appeared with the text 'The file could not be restored.' Instead, I had to manually restore all files except one DLL file that had given me issues in the past.

One thing to note about BitDefender is its pricing plan. The 12-month plan costs $0 per month, which is a reasonable price for a Windows antivirus. However, renewal after the first year will cost $59.99, which covers three devices.

I also experienced some false positives during a full system scan with BitDefender, which automatically placed the 'threats' into quarantine. Overall, while I was able to resolve my issue, I am not satisfied with the experience and plan to switch to another antivirus solution in the future.
