I followed your instructions and re-installed bitdefender but, I still can't open it. It's completely inactive. When I login to my account at Bitdefender it also shows that my device is not protected.

Hmm and there is no warning

Download aswMBR.exe ( 4.5mb ) to your desktop.
Double click the aswMBR.exe to run it.
You may be offered the option of using virtualisation, accept that
When it offers to download the virus database allow that as well
Click the "Scan" button to start scan

On completion of the scan click save log, save it to your desktop and post in your next reply

Hmm I can see no reason for this

Download Windows All In One Repair from Tweaking.com to your desktop
Install the programme

Reboot to safe mode with networking
Run Windows All In One
Select Step 2
Select open Pre-repairs scan then click scan
Let that complete
Save the results to a text file on your desktop

Next select Step 5 and back up the registry

Open the Repairs tab

waioopenrep.JPG

Select the following repair numbers :

1,2,3,4,5,10,26 and 27

Set the system to reboot on completion
The press Start Repairs

By the way, this was the second time, I got infected by one of those pop ups that tells you that your system is infected and asks to call a number. Always while using Chrome. Is ther an plugin I can use to protect my browser. Bitdefender only has Safepay browser plugin

Have you considered using IE or Firefox ?
As those two browsers are not as susceptible as Chrome to infection/subversion

Try scriptsafe https://chrome.googl...ahbdbdgdf?hl=en

Any other problems evident ?

Hmm tricky as Edge is not yet really functional

Install scriptsafe in Chrome as another layer of protection

Any other problems before I tidy up
