My Norton Will Not Install

I want to do this! What's This?

Norton AntiVirus is a computer security program for Windows operating systems. Several major computer brands feature trial versions of the Norton software pre-installed. Computer users who purchase Norton products can have problems installing new versions because previous installations of the program may remain on the computer. Removing them will allow Norton to properly install.

Difficulty: Easy

 

Instructions

1. Download the appropriate Norton Product Removal Tool to your computer (see Resources).
   
   
2. Double-click the Norton Product Removal Tool application file and select the default options on the subsequent dialogue menus.
   
   
3. Restart your computer after the previous installations of Norton products have been removed from your computer.
   
   
4. Reinstall Norton by double-clicking the product installation file if you purchased the program online, or insert the installation CD if you purchased it from a store.
   
   
5. Follow the default menu prompts to install the Norton product on your computer. You will need to re-enter the product activation key to successfully complete installation. If you purchased the Norton product online, the key will have been emailed to you and is accessible via your online Norton account if you do not have it.
   
   
6. Restart your computer and the Norton product will be installed.
