10. Fixing Issues
BitDefender uses an issue tracking system to detect and inform you about the issues
that may affect the security of your computer and data. By default, it will monitor
only a series of issues that are considered to be very important. However, you can
configure it as needed, choosing which specific issues you want to be notified about.
This is how pending issues are notified:
●
A special symbol is displayed over the BitDefender icon in the system tray to
indicate pending issues. Also, if you move the mouse cursor over the icon, a
pop-up will confirm the existence of pending issues.
● When you open BitDefender, the Security Status area will indicate the number of
issues affecting your system.
▶ In Basic View, the security status is displayed on the left side of the window.
▶ In Expert View, go to General > Dashboard to check the security status.
10.1. Fix Issues Wizzard
The easiest way to fix the existing issues is to follow the Fix Issues Wizard. To
open the wizard, do any of the following:
●
Right-click the BitDefender icon in the system tray and select Fix All Issues.
● Open BitDefender and, depending on the user interface view mode, proceed as
follows:
▶ In Basic View, click View All Issues.
▶ In Expert View, go to General > Dashboard and click View All Issues.
Note
You can also add a shortcut to My Tools.
A list of existing security threats on your computer is displayed.
All current issues are selected to be fixed. If there is an issue that you do not want
to be fixed, just clear the corresponding check box. If you do so, its status will change
to Skip.
Note
If you do not want to be notified about specific issues, you must configure the alert
system accordingly, as described in the next section.
To fix the selected issues, click Start. Some issues are fixed immediately. For others,
a wizard helps you fix them.
