2.1.2. Profiles
Some computer activities, such as online games or video presentations,
require increased system responsiveness, high performance and no
interruptions. When your laptop is running on battery power, it is best that
unnecessary operations, which consume additional power, be postponed
until the laptop is connected back to A/C power.
Bitdefender Profiles assigns more system resources to the running apps by
temporarily modifying protection settings and adjusting system configuration.
Consequently, the system impact on your activity is minimized.
To adapt to different activities, Bitdefender comes with the following profiles:
Work Profile
Optimizes your work efficiency by identifying and adjusting the product
and system settings.
Movie Profile
Enhances visual effects and eliminates interruptions when watching
movies.
Game Profile
Enhances visual effects and eliminates interruptions when playing
games.
Public Wi-Fi Profile
Applies product settings to benefit from full protection while connected
to an unsecure wireless network.
Battery Mode Profile
Applies product settings and holds down background activity to save
battery life.
Configure automatic activation of profiles
For an easy-to-use experience, you can configure Bitdefender to manage
your working profile. In this case, Bitdefender automatically detects the
activity you perform and applies system and product optimization settings.
To allow Bitdefender to activate profiles:
1. Click Settings on the navigation menu on the Bitdefender interface.
2. Select the Profiles tab.
3. Use the corresponding switch to turn on Activate profiles automatically.
