EDIT: added additional info.
You have to follow the above suggestion and add Steam.exe to the Whitelist and it then works. Would have been good if I had found this before I uninstalled and then reinstalled, lost all my Games and Data., Oh well, at least it's working again. Thanks for the info.
So this isn't an isolated incident then? Interesting. Thanks to you and the OP for the info.
That's a pretty irresponsible protip that I wouldn't recommend to anybody. Whitelisting an app should be the last resort, not the first. We don't even know which feature of Bitdefender might have caused the problem! The OP just turned them all off.
OP makes no mention of error msgs or warnings that Bitdefender generates when an app tries to violate security policy. I'd certainly get more info before issuing blanket exemptions for any app or game.
OP, I'd be happy to help investigate if you want another set of eyes.
It doesn't solve the problem. It's a poor man's workaround. We still don't know exactly wtf happened here. Just whitelisting without knowing the root cause is simply irresponsible. If this was done in a business environment, that person would be fired.
If there's an actual problem with Bitdefender, which I doubt now, someone should tell them so they can investigate. Not just throw a bandaid on a potential problem.
WOW! Worked right away, thank you very much for putting this out here - Greatly appreciated!
