Uninstall BitDefender and just use Windows' built-in Defender AntiVirus. Don't download software from places you shouldn't be downloading, aka only download licensed software directly from trusted developer/company/publisher websites. Don't go to questionable phishing websites on the interwebs. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75886428/fake-positive-bit-defender-problem-genvariant-tedy-304469 regarding BitDefender.
