BitDefender is supposed to have had an update to resolve this issue.
Have you updated your copy recently?

Lots of people using BitDefender have had to disabled the 'Real Time
Scanning' or uninstall the application completely to get Windows Update
to work again but check the application is up-to-date:

Note: turning off BitDefender doesn't work, only turning off Realtime
Protection by removing the tick from the Realtime Protection checkbox
inside the BitDefender main window solves the problem!
