Bitdefender doesn't display alerts

[TheMalwareMaster]

Gppd. evening, today i downloaded Bitdefender TS on a Windows 7 x86 virtual matchine to test it. I downloaded malware packs from the malware hub. I noticed that some files were deleted by Bitdefender but it didn't show any alert. Insted, when I was visiting dangerous pages, it blocked them. Did you have this problem too? How can I fix it?

Hi,

If you open the BD interface, is there a switch that looks like kind of an airplane? If so, this is "auto-pilot" - basically a silent mode of sorts where BD makes all decisions without user interaction. If this is switched to ON, try turning it OFF then doing your tests again & let us know if that fixed it

Autopilot was on, but in the past I watched some reviews, they were using autopilot mode and BD displayed alerts when malware was detected

I disabled autopilot and now it's working fine

Glad I could help

Well as an information, Bitdefender some instances display alerts of blocked threats however in such default settings where Auto Pilot is on then some reviewers misinterpreted where it failed although the logs shows of automatic response already.

Its not a bug nor issue but rather factory setting implemented.
