Software Description

Bitdefender Free Antivirus is a program that helps your computer to be free of viruses and malware without paying anything. It checks your system in real time and warns you when it detects a threat. You may use it to maintain your PC clean and secure when browsing, downloading files or installing applications. Bitdefender is silent and does not slow your computer much.

You are able to perform a full system scan at any time you wish or you can set up scans at your convenience. The app presents a clear overview of every scan, what files it scanned and what it found. Bitdefender monitors downloads and USB drives as well. It deletes or quarantines a risky file when it detects it and proceeds to explain its action. These actions can be checked in the summary tab.

Bitdefender automatically updates its virus definitions. This will make it able to deal with emerging threats as they emerge. You do not have to worry about updates, the app does it all. You may view the update history and verify the last update that was performed.

Bitdefender can be managed using a clean interface. It displays the necessary buttons and statuses. It is possible to start or stop scans with a single click. There are also settings that can be accessed to change scan type, exclusions and behavior alerts. The app also marks each option clearly, and you are aware of what it does before you alter it.

Bitdefender is compatible with Windows and Android. You may connect it to other Bitdefender services in case you want. The free one remains antivirus-oriented.

You can be sure that Bitdefender will not bother you. It has a low effect on the speed of the system and you can continue working or playing as it runs silently in the background.

Nevertheless, Bitdefender Free Antivirus lacks such features as firewall, parental controls, VPN, and advanced ransomware protection. There are no secure file shredding tools, email scanning tools, or password management tools. Basic virus and malware protection is all that the app provides.
