- Disconnect internet. Do not Forget this step.
- While you are offline, start Installation. If things are at the right place, the installation will finish. Connect Internet and Login to Central Account. Update the application. That's it.Have you already added a subscription in Central Account? Probably a different product i.e. Internet Security 2017 or Antivirus Plus 2017? Don't worry! As soon as you log in with the account, Bitdefender will automatically change the application.
- Got Error?
You must first install Bitdefender Agent to be able to install Bitdefender 2017!
If you face above error, please follow the steps below:
- Login to Bitdefender Central Account. Go to My Devices. On this screen, click on "Install Bitdefender" button. Download the web setup, 8.6 MB.

Bitdefender 2017 Offline Installer: Video Guide
Removing Offline Installer Kit is not a good step by Bitdefender. There are a lot of people who do not have a good Internet connection. Another case is for people who format their system very often. Hence, downloading the same package, again and again, makes no sense.
Bitdefender 2017 Offline Installer: Issues
Although it is an offline installer, you need a stable internet. Activation cannot happen without it. Please note that when using an offline Installer, you are using a relatively old setup file. Therefore, the time taken for the first update will be long. A patience test if your internet connection is either slow or keeps disconnecting a lot.
A web installer detects 32 / 64 bit OS automatically while the offline installer does not. Hence you have to download the exact version as your OS is. Confusing? You can use Microsoft OS Version Finder Guide. It will help you to determine the version of OS you are using.
Comparing to the web Installer, the Offline installer is still better. As you can at least install the application without fail. Updating the application is not an issue as it happens automatically as a background task.
Are these Bitdefender 2017 Offline Installer links Official?
Indeed a good question. Officially, Bitdefender says:
There will be no offline kits for Bitdefender 2017
However, the links available now are from official servers. Hence they are safe to download and install. In addition, You should also take care not to download Bitdefender 2017 Offline Installer from dubious websites. If you do so, you are at risk of downloading modified files. While you install from such links, you might be installing other hidden applications too. Hence as a final caution, do not download from unknown servers.

Wohoooo coll buddy, it’s worked like a charm! Thanks very much
Cheers friend! We love it when people let us know that we are indeed doing a good job.
It works very well. Just follow the steps carefully and Bitdefender will be up and running in no time.
The program itself works quite well though, apart from the odd bug every now and then.
You can make a fresh install. That solved most of the issues I had. My app lagged a lot. Now everything is running as expected.
not working I dont know what to do
Hi Shahid,
Let me know at which step its failing.
I purchased the 10 user edition x 3 packs for installing in the systems I have in my small business office. I contacted support and told them it is a waste of bandwith for me to use the web installer to download the 400 Mb setup file over and over again and they said they dont have an offilne installer and escalated the issue to devs. I am still waiting to hearback, I am going to give this a shot and see if it works
is it working
Thank you, it works.
If you have any trouble with the online activation of license, just remove your computer/laptop in My Devices, and look for the Install button (Top Right) or perhaps in the My Subscriptions section, click it, it downloads another Bitdefender installer which you can then install and it will pick up your installation. Reboot to complete the installation.
Well Bitdefender 2017 is great. Forgot I had a two year license. It works straight off the bat without any funny little bugs like the initial launch of some previous years versions.
I still turn off Auto Pilot so I can run my little custom scripts and such and launch my little extra Trojan/Root Kit scanners and backup software, but I’m pretty happy with this release. Boots faster, easy to set up and I’m yet to discover anything I don’t like.
You could put it on other peoples computers for them and it wouldn’t drive them mad, as you know what you are doing and how to install it.
Thanks for these links! but I am looking for internet security.
Do they work for internet security?
Yes, once the Total Security is installed, just login with your central account. Bitdefender will automatically detect the subscription in your account and change it to Internet Security.
best antivirus ever, thank you very much man! we need people like you in this world….
very difficult to setup this way. Must be installation processes to much easy for all than previous version.
Does not work for me.
When I click “Switch Account” as shown in video, A new box appears with “Bitdefender Account” but nothing appears inside it. What should i do?
Is this offline installer multilingual?
I need it in german language.
Yes, the installer is multilingual – German is included.
Thanks buddy . this helps
