BitDefender Antivirus Pro 2011
21.2. Laptop Mode
Laptop Mode is especially designed for laptop and notebook users. Its purpose is to
minimize BitDefender's impact on power consumption while these devices are
running on battery.
While in Laptop Mode, scheduled tasks are by default not performed.
BitDefender detects when your laptop has switched to battery power and it
automatically enters Laptop Mode. Likewise, BitDefender automatically exits Laptop
Mode, when it detects the laptop is no longer running on battery.
To configure Laptop Mode:
1. Open BitDefender, click Options in the upper-right corner of the window and
choose Expert View.
2. Go to Game/Laptop Mode > Laptop Mode.
You can see whether Laptop Mode is enabled or not. If Laptop Mode is enabled,
BitDefender will apply the configured settings while the laptop is running on battery.
21.2.1. Configuring Laptop Mode Settings
To configure the behaviour on scheduled tasks, use these options:
● Enable this module to modify Antivirus scan tasks schedules - to prevent
scheduled scan tasks from running while in Laptop Mode. You can choose one of
the following options:
Option
Skip Task
Postpone Task
21.3. Silent Mode
Description
Do not run the scheduled task at all.
Run the scheduled task immediately after you exit Laptop
Mode.
Silent Mode temporarily modifies protection settings so as to minimize their impact
on system performance. While in Silent Mode the following settings are applied:
● All BitDefender alerts and pop-ups are disabled.
● Scheduled scan tasks are by default disabled.
By default, BitDefender automatically enters Silent Mode when you watch a movie
or a presentation or when an application goes to full screen. It is strongly
recommended that you exit Silent Mode when you finished watching the movie or
the presentation.
