Windows Security and BitDefender automatically getting removed after Windows Update
Hi I have had to restore/reset my Windows 10 installation, at least 5 times in the last one year ! My laptop is a ThinkPad E14 with Windows 10 Pro. I have BitDefender Gravityzone Endpoint sec...
No, there's been no malware/virus issues in any of the PCs/Laptops within the same network. Will check the event viewer as recommended by you.
But this is happening even after a clean reinstallation if Windows using the media creation tool. I have even tried not installing BitDefender after a clean reinstall of Windows. Still, after a few weeks, Windows Security gets removed after a Windows Security Update!
Does it happens just after installing the BitDefender?
Are you using the latest version of the BitDefender?
Have you check with BitDefender's support?

- Having failed to detect the issue, I have now done a clean reinstall of Windows using the Media Creation Tool. Also did a thorough cleaning of all data, using Tron Script. Will not install BitDefender Endpoint for now and will wait and watch for the next 2-3 Windows Security Updates. Thank you for your time & efforts in assisting me.
Hello!
Maybe you'll test Defender Guard on this computer?

Please write your opinion on this topic.
Good luck- Never heard of this in the past. Maybe I'll give it a try after I see the original issue has been resolved.
I would add that if the software is automatically removed, the
there is a large mismatch, and what do the error logs in this case show?
I would ask the BitDefender Developer why there is such a Windows Update action in this case then the developer should worry and explain it!- Microsoft Security Centre also gets removed, not only BitDefender. And it is the Windows Security Update which is doing this. What is causing it to behave this way, is what I am trying to find out.
When the problem first occurred, I had lengthy discussions with BitDefender support and it was concluded that this issue was not being caused by Bitdefender.
Nevertheless, now that I will not be reinstalling BitDefender for some time, we will be able to safely conclude what is actually causing the issue.
Thanks for your suggestions.
- Thank you for the update.
In any case, make sure check with the BitDefender team and report this issue in the Feedback Hub app.
