Manual Download of NIS 2010 17.1.0.19 version

[ Edited ]

I want to know, how can i download the latest updated version as a trial version so that i can insert my key and get directly the latest updated version build. I am little bit not sure, whether Norton update center will give me the latest full build or not.!!

 

Does anybody have any suggestion ?

Hi Silverhawk

 

17.1.0.19 is not yet on the dowmload servers as a full download. The version that is there is 17.0.0.136 which you would have to update via liveupdate.

Hi silverhawk,

 

The latest  17.1.0.19 version can only be obtained via LiveUpdate at the moment. 

 

Please read Tim's announcement on the deployment of the patch over here:

http://community.norton.com/norton/board/message?board.id=nis_feedback&thread.id=85746

You can obtain the patch by either letting LiveUpdate pick it up automatically, or simply running LiveUpdate manually. The patch will arrive in two parts; after the second part, you will be asked to reboot your computer.

Once the Symantec Team is sure that the patch installs without any glitches, they will probably update the NIS 2010 installers on the Symantec website to include the patch, but for now it is impossible to say when and if this will happen.

Re: Manual Download of NIS 2010 17.1.0.19 version

I was going to upgrade from NIS 2009 today, but when I saw this I decided against it. Since the patch includes fixes for problems with upgrading it does not make sense to me that it would not be incorporated into the dowloadable upgrade or the  full install. I see that the patch has been released to all customers.

 

Maybe I am missing something here.

 

How will I know when the latest version of NIS 2010 is on the servers for updating or full install?

Hi Greg

 

You should not have an issue doing an upgrade to NIS2010 and then a liveupdate to the very latest version. You can read Tim's release notes on the top of this forum what the updates were for.

 

http://community.norton.com/norton/board/message?board.id=nis_feedback&thread.id=85746

 

You can download the full NIS2010 package from here

 

www.norton.com/nis10 and as long as you have a vilid subscription to yuor current NIS2009 you can update for free.

Hi MD Turner,

 

I guess what makes me cautious is the comment in the link above:

 

Corrected an issue with upgrading from 2009 to 2010

 

Ie I don't want to upgrade from a server file that requires a live Update to solve an update problem, which may occur before I can Live Update it, or may prevent me from Live Updating in the first place.

 

That is the issue I am having trouble with.
