Product Manuals

Q: Does Bitdefender require bank/credit card information AND automatic renewal to activate the license? I have now left Norton because of that repugnant behavior.

A: To activate Bitdefender you are now required to provide a credit card and agree to autorenewal (which you can later turn off). I just bought, then returned, Bitdefender (10 devices) from BestBuy in Canada. I had been a Norton user for over 10 years but could not longer put up with their unreasonable demands. The Bitdefender box didn't say anything on the package about requiring a credit card (which Norton does state) and there was a disc inside the box. I thought, "Great. I don't even have to download." However, installation requires you to check agreement to terms and conditions, which if you read then says you have to provide a credit card and agree to autorenewal. What is it with these guys strong-arming people into giving personal information to use a product they've alreay paid for. Even if you turn the autorenewal off, they still now have your name and address, and already know exactly where you go because of the nature of antivirus/vpn. Warning : The installation says if you aren't willing to agree to the T&Cs, you should quit installation and return to place you bought it for a refund. However, I met with some resistance as the usual rules for returns does not allow opened software. I did have a senior rep agree but clearly others present would not have allowed it. Be forewarned.

Q: May be a dumb question but will this internet security software only protect my computer from viruses when I use the internet or will it scan my entire computer and detect if I already have a virus on my computer?

A: Hello. Bitdefender will cover both these scenarios, making sure that there is nothing malicious on the system, and that nothing malicious will ever get on it.

Q: I have bitdefender 2018 and would like to buy the 2019 version. Do I have to uninstall the 2018 before installing the 2019?

A: Hi Elan. Chances are you've already been automatically upgraded to the 2019 version, since it doesn't matter what version you purchase, you can always install the latest released version. If not, you can just run the 2019 installer and the 2018 version will be upgraded automatically.

Q: What is the difference between the Digital and Physical version of Bitdefender Internet security?

A: They are the same. I bought the disc but after I just renew it through the portal. It updates to the latest version if it is a disc or not.

Q: Does it come with VPN, or do I have to pay extra for VPN

A: Yes you have to pay extra for it. It is included in the software, but it only gives you a few hours of use and then says you must establish and pay for an account.

Q: I have a current subscription that expires next month. The Best Buy price is less than the renewal offer. Can I purchase the Best Buy product and activate it the day prior to when my current subscription ends and use my existing Account Info?

A: Hello Fred. Yes, you can purchase Bitdefender from Best Buy and activate it right before your current subscription expires in order to benefit from the lower price. Thank you for your continuous association with Bitdefender!
