I have the free version of Bitdefender. How can I disable only the web protection part?

I use Google Chrome under Windows 7.

Bitdefender isn't among the Google Chrome extensions.

In the free version of this software it looks like there isn't web settings.

You cannot.

The free edition of Bitdefender does not have as full a suite of settings as you'll find in the paid for versions.

I pay for Bitdefender and enjoy the product.

But frankly, if you're going for free Anti-virus product, just use the Microsoft Security Essentials.

From the article How to disable all modules in Bitdefender 2020:

  • Bring up the Bitdefender interface and access Protection
  • In the ONLINE THREAT PREVENTION module, click Settings
  • In the Web Protection tab, switch to OFF the protections you don't need
  • You might perhaps want in the Network threat prevention tab, to set the switch to OFF
  • Click SAVE to save the changes and close the window

As the free edition of Bitdefender does not have these settings, I suggest installing the full trial version, disable the ONLINE THREAT PREVENTION module, then let it degrade to the free version. As I don't use Bitdefender, I cannot guarantee that this trick will work, although it worked for me with other products.
