A new version of BitDefender Free Edition was officially rolled out today, bringing plenty of improvements on basically all Windows versions still supported by Microsoft.

BitDefender Free Edition 1.0.16.1023 adds a “Full System Scan” option in the System Tray menu icon, while also changing the “Full Scan” tool into “Full Sweep” in the Auto Scan section.

The new build also packs several bug fixes aimed at the Logs button, the built-in Explorer, and the Threat Control screen.

Last but not least, the new version packs Auto Scan and On-Demand scan improvements and new scan paths for the installer for better detection of specific malware.

Of course, Bitdefender Free Edition Edition continues to run smoothly on all Windows versions, be they XP, Vista, 7, or 8. Both 32- and 64-bit editions are supported.
