Fix It Yourself
Try these steps before calling. They resolve the majority of common Norton issues.
1
Schedule full scans weekly
Set Norton to run a full system scan every Sunday night when the PC is idle. Go to Scans → Schedule Scan and select the frequency. Regular scans catch threats before they cause damage.
2
Enable automatic virus definition updates
Turn on LiveUpdate to automatically download the latest virus signatures. Go to Settings → Administrative Settings → Automatic LiveUpdate and set it to run daily. Outdated definitions can miss new malware.
3
Use Norton Password Manager
Norton 360 includes a free password manager. Store all passwords securely and use unique passwords for every site. Enable browser extension auto-fill for faster, safer logins.
4
Set up Dark Web Monitoring
In your Norton dashboard, add your email addresses to Dark Web Monitoring. Norton will alert you if your credentials appear in data breaches so you can change passwords before accounts are compromised.
5
Enable the Firewall's intrusion protection
Go to Settings → Firewall → Intrusion and Botnet Protection and ensure both are turned on. These features block hackers from exploiting vulnerabilities in your OS and network.
quiz Norton FAQ
Common questions answered by our research team.
add Does Norton slow down your computer?
Modern Norton versions have minimal impact on performance. Scans run in the background using low CPU priority. You can schedule scans for nighttime to avoid any slowdown during work hours.
add How do I cancel Norton auto-renewal?
Log in to My Norton at my.norton.com → Account → Subscription → Turn Off Auto-Renewal. You can also call 1-855-815-2726. Norton's 60-day money-back guarantee applies to most annual plans.
add Can Norton remove existing viruses?
Yes. Norton can detect and remove most known malware. For stubborn infections, use the Norton Power Eraser tool (downloadable from Norton's site) which performs a more aggressive scan.
add How many devices does Norton protect?
It depends on your plan. Norton AntiVirus Plus covers 1 PC. Norton 360 Standard covers 1–3 devices. Norton 360 Deluxe covers up to 5 devices across Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android.
add Is Norton VPN included in the subscription?
Norton 360 Standard, Deluxe, and Premium all include Secure VPN with unlimited bandwidth. Norton AntiVirus Plus and some older plans do not include VPN.
