Windows 10 restarts when you shutdown
With any one of Bitdefender 2016 product installed on Windows 10, when you shutdown the computer, the system restarts. The security company is aware of this and suggests users to choose sleep in place of shutdown.
You can shutdown by holding the shift button and click on power button > Shutdown or lock your screen and shutdown the computer from there.
UPDATE: Seems Bitdefender has pushed an update and fixed the shutdown issue. Open Bitdefender interface, click on ‘Update’, restart when events highlights. You should be on or over build 20.0.18.1036 after the update.
I bought Total Security 2015, 3 Users, 2 years. I can install my first windows 10 64 bit pc by using manual download of 2016 version. So I use this file to my another Windows 10 64bit pc but after installation, I can’t open it. So uninstall and I try to fix and mistakenly use custom button in next installation. So now I can’t install and bitdefender asks to restart pc to use setup. But after restart, no action. Please reply. I need your help badly.
Please contact Bitdefender.

I have installed a legit Bitdefender Internet Security 2016 into my Lenovo laptop running a Windows 10 OS. After the installation, i cant access anymore the OS, it just keep on automatic diagnostic which i cant got into Windows 10 to log in. What would be the core cause of this problem?
Bitdefender or any program could have caused this, once automatic repair screen appears, access reset or advanced options and try to see by accessing system restore option whether you can able restore your computer to before install state of bitdefender.
I’ve had Bitdefender now for several years no problems until last week. I have a Lenovo all-in-one everything had been working fine, then started getting different errors and just acting not right. Then this week it did the same as yours, went to log-in and black screen and says no operating system found. Can’t do anything but take it to a computer repair tech and see what they can do.
Bitdefender is a great product IF you can ever get it installed. Their customer service is a joke, three day for a reply and then given repeated bad instruction that just made matters worse. I’ve used Bitdefender for the last five years and every time it has been a pain to install. They must know about if they want you to pay $40 for them to install it. I uninstalled their product and am waiting for a refund. NEVER will use their product again.
Don’t think I’m going to use bitdefender again been told good things about it but it just doesn’t want to install on my windows 10 pc so it now doesn’t have any protection due to having to uninstall my old protection.
I have used Bitdefender for the past 5 years…until now. I was running Total Security 2015 until the program updated itself to 2016. The new Bitdfender ate up 100% of my cpu, most of my 8 gigs of memory, and made any practical use of the internet impossible. Uninstalled. Oh…and I HATE Bitdefender’s pricing tactics. They start at 89.99. But I’ve always been able to find it for $19.99, or get the offer straight from Bitdefender by email. Switched to Norton, and it works like it is supposed to.
Help- installed Windows 10 and couldn’t get to Internet- uninstalled bit defender and had internet back. Downloaded and installed 2016 and lost internet again. Can you advise?
could be something do with Bitdefender Firewall, turn it off and switch on Windows Firewall to see that solves the problem. BTW Bitdefender to release 2017 products this month 14.
