I'm using Kaspersky, but just out of curiosity I took a look at the Bitdefender community and came across this

As you can see, now apparently they are putting some notes about the updates 🙂 this is already an advance

Points for Bitdefender ✔️

The most recent note is this:

Are they publishing changelogs now? updates were always under the rug, never published publicly, better late than never, this has always been a request from the community, congratulations 🙌
Yes in the link I mentioned above, they are posting the changelogs for the updates. It was a community request a long time ago. However, it is now being answered.

Points for Bitdefender ✔️🅱️

Interesting! I didn't know this because I'm still using Windows 10 and I don't plan on switching to 11 anytime soon, but what you said is great news.
Yeah, one less click to scan something. So it's good.
That's the older context menu. I'm talking about the new context menu that was introduced in Windows 11.

Don't have BD installed at the moment, so it's not showing here.

I don't see the sense to have all menu entries again in W11 mode, so why then Microsoft added the additional expanded option? just 1 more click, I prefer to keep in W11 the main entries that come by default, and then if I need an additional menu entry, then go to expanded menu 🤷‍♂️

Well, it's Microsoft's fault that they made this new context menu. They should've just updated the look of the old one to match with Windows 11's theme.
But since we have it, I prefer this new context menu to have more options so that I don't need to make that extra click. That's what Microsoft also wants app developers to do.

On my Windows 11, I have the new context menu disabled and the old menu set. This is more convenient for me.
Some features in Windows 11 are unnecessary in my opinion. Form over substance

My friend moved from KIS to Bitdefender and he tells me:
I clearly prefer its KIS's UI and customization options, BitDefender is clearly aimed at less tech-savvy people, and doesn’t offer much in terms of options. But it was the next best offer to KIS (apart from ESET but ESET was way more expensive for multiple machine licensing).

Any idea?
