I wonder if you can combine it with Kaspersky Anti-Ransomware which is free.
Bitdefender Free Antivirus is back

I've not found that to be true, or read it, though I'm sure some will believe it - you can have unnecessary partitions but there is no major disadvantage to partitioning though some don't see the point - I have a M.2 Samsung pro partitioned with Windows & data & 4TB SSD partitioned for music & photographs - It's just personal choice but wear does not come into it, SSD's last a lot longer that some think.

I agree. For me it doesn't matter if SSD life shortens from let's say 15 years to 12, as I will probably replace it sooner.

It is windows PE ( however you can't create it separately , according to Bitdefender website it is created on installation of Bitdefender in hidden partition ) . Also I think they discontinued their rescue disk iso , now they only have a rescue mode which boots if Bitdefender fails to disinfect some deeply integrated malware , or you manually clicked on it .
Rescue Mode(Bitdefender) More info

I decided to reinstall BD Free to give it another shot, ive been running it for about 3 days now and so far im enjoying it this time around more. slow web browsing disappeared after about an hour of browsing.
I tried to reinstall comodo after I had installed BD and its a no go for me, the computer was sluggish, so ive replaced comodo with Voodooshield and WFC

f-secure is an excellent fast and light protection.I, too, ditched after trying for a day. PC temperature was higher than normal and the fan kept going.Trying F-Secure now.

I had F-secure installed and replaced it with BD free from the first day it came out, i'm happy with it ... feels a little lighter than F-secure in browsing the web, overal snappier.

Disabled whole Bitdefender here …I guess everyone disables most of the total security, so in the end it seems free

In the latest Bitdefender Free vs Comodo Premium Free test, it suffered a defeat.

It's not for me. Someone over at Wilders having issues. Was curious if anyone else was having problems.
Good to know, thanks.

That is not a defeat, considering that Bitdefender out of more than 1000 files only ransomware was passed and only 18 files were left over. Bitdefender free does not have ransomware remediation enabled and does not have sanbox either. Unlike comodo, which practically does not act as an antivirus but as a sanbox. If it is not for the sanbox, the machine would be destroyed in Comodo. Leaving over 900 files undeleted. Greetings.

It has no shields against malicious scripts, but can stop actions with its behavioral shield (PowerShell, VBS etc)
Already seen this in test
