Bitdefender Agent system tray icon appears after a long time

Here's why the Bitdefender system tray icon appears with delay (1 or more minutes) when you reboot or start your Windows 10 computer.

But if you have a SSD or Nvme SSd it loads fast (my experience)

Good to know man thanks.

It loads immediately for me, if you have fast startup disabled. There used to be a delay even with fast startup disabled for me, but not anymore since almost a year.

I moved away from BD. Perhaps sometime in the future I will try it. But I noticed performance issues which for me was a no go.

Sorry to hear that man. BD can be strange at least in my experiences with it. Hope Norton works out better for you.

Setting everything aggressive makes it prone to more false positives. So keep that in mind.

I know used Norton for long. Better FP than infected

I'd suggest than you make a clean image of you OS without any antivirus. Frequently changing AV's can cause problems like this and even if you remove it thoroughly you can never be sure that no remnants are there lurking in your system. Since you installed Norton keep an eye on that Norton disk defragmenter.....it does love to defrag SSD's instead of running TRIM.

About the Bitdefender problem, it is really strange. I never had problems with them on the various hardware that already installed, more as is always repeated here on the forum exhaustively and rightly, each hardware has a different reaction with respect to AV's.

It is especially that the antivirus can leave traces on the system (whether files, services etc. ...)

When I uninstall one, I try to find an "uninstaller" and I pass HiBit to remove everything.
But the best thing to do if you tend to change too many antiviruses is to make a clean system image and to start again on a good basis...

Reinstalled the cumputer , same configuration except:

Installed GData Total Security again. Such a waste not to use my 3 years license.
Combined it with Simple Windows Hardening, runs smooth and stable.

No Norton on that one?

No more Bitdefender engines for now.

You have become the victim of a known contagious MT disease named, "AV hopping"
At the moment, there's no cure for it. Only time may heal it

 

[L0ckJaw]

Compared to Bitdefender or GDATA , Norton is so much smoother and faster.
Booting of Bitdefender always comes with services not loading.
