Norton AntiVirus Plus 2026 Ready, Antivirus software for 1 Device with Auto-Renewal – Includes Advanced AI Scam Protection, Password Manager and PC Cloud Backup [Download]

This program has turned into a piece of crap. After purchasing and attempting download and install, I was told it would not support my PC. Do not purchase! I am not a high-tech person. I finally figured it out and got it loaded and installed. Sorry about the original evaluation. This product is good!

Terrible, I had to dis installed it because it was very heavy, it slow my laptop a lot,and on top of that it prevented all google pages to be opened. Awful product

1. Most of the ‘chatter’ that you hear is incorrect and made up by people that like ‘free stuff’ - ie: it takes over my computer, conflicts with other programs. Etc. 2. This Amazon version requires you to sign up for auto-renew to register it (that is why it is cheaper for the year subscription) but you can cancel the auto-renew right after you register your current copy. Enjoy the small cost for a great product. 3. You really can’t install antivirus on an infected computer, it will cause issues installing, running , and updating any antivirus software. 4. You should have your system professionally cleaned up before you install any antivirus. Norton supplies a tool to help you if your system is in a ‘bad way’ called Norton Power Eraser, NPE – which is a free download. Run it first to get most of the really bad stuff, then you can install your new Norton Antivirus 5. Every company tries to upsell you to get more money and to sell you more options for their products. 99% of people are better off with just antivirus, you don’t need track eraser, VPN, firewall, backup, and many other features that is available from Norton. (sorry Norton, ie Symantec corporation) The more you install, that you don’t really need, the slower your computer will be and it will also affect your internet speed and connectivity to secure sites if you are running any VPN software.

I've had Norton Anti-Virus installed on my home computers for the past 6 years and am happy to report it does what it claims to - keeps them virus free and running well. It's easy to install and simple to operate. I especially like the option of right clicking on a newly downloaded file and using Norton from that menu to run a quick scan on just the one file. Now the "Greedy" part of my review title... Boils down to two things. 1. When your Norton plan is about to expire Norton begins showing you pop-ups telling you it's about to occur and offering to sell you a new subscription. No problem with that. What I don't like is the price they offer you from the pop-up offer is usually twice what you'd pay through most online retailers. Very insulting considering I'm already an established customer. If anything, offer me the best price to remain one! 2. What many others have stated in their reviews - Norton now forces you to input a credit card on their site so they can take a shot at auto-billing you when your just purchased subscription expires. Of course that auto-billing will be at the higher price as stated previously. They are hoping you'll forget about the auto-billing and be able to hit you for the higher cost next time around. Greedy. Also, no subscription service that's already purchased should be able to force you to enter a credit card when there's no need for any further charges. Greedy. Yes, you can find the switch within your Norton.com account to tell them not to auto-bill you when your sub expires but, as may other reviewers have noted, no customer wants to be forced to do that! Norton - read these reviews and try to find one that says "I love Norton forces me to enter a credit card so they can try to auto-bill me later at a higher price than what I'll pay through other online retailers because I'm so absent minded they're saving me from myself!" Good luck finding that review.

I use Norton because it ranks up there with others that are considered the best security suites. It is so much better to buy it here than thru Norton's own website - where they drive you crazy with their "auto renewal" - OMG, they are the worst with their pushing you for 'auto renewal'. I strongly suggest buying it here on Amazon at DEEP DISCOUNT as a one-year thing, and when it runs out, return to Amazon and find the lowest selling new Norton security suite, and buying that for one year. Anything is better than having the money-grabbing Norton drive you nutz. So this is good, I recommend it. AND if another security suite has a top ranking from PC Magazine next year, I will fly to that one. Don't stay glued to the same suite - find one that works the best for you!

I'm not super happy with Norton right now. I got a good deal on Black Friday ($10) and it has a lot of features and seems to be working, but I have a hard time seeing the notifications. The text is either too small or cut off/not aligned in the window (pop-up). I tried reaching out on the Support Forums and got a lackluster response. I switched from Bit-defender because of the cost and I'm thinking of looking into Norton's 60 day money back guarantee if I qualify. I'm not sure since I bought it through Amazon. I also realize it only works on 1 device (as stated) so it doesn't work on both a phone and a PC at the same time. It's nice that I can transfer the license to a new, different device with ease and that it has good performance, reviews as an anti-virus. It comes with a password manager, which I eventually plan to use. The 2 GB cloud backup is nice and I think if you have auto-renewal they upgrade the storage, but I'm not sure. Overall, my opinion is mixed. I can't really see the important notifications that tell me what's wrong with my computer. I think it has to do with my 4k monitor/resolution, but I'm not sure. I tried updating and re-installing it too and it still didn't fix it.

I didn't like it. Always received messages that I needed to buy another software to handle the problems that I was having.
