Hello johnj

 

Welcome to the Norton Users Discussion Forum

 

As you can see from this link, NIS 2010 will be good for Win 7 64 bits, most things will work ok.

It is the same version of NIS 2010

 

You can download 2010 NIS from here



http://www.norton.com/nis10

Please remember to run live update after install to make sure all updates are received and then please reboot.

Please come back and let us know how you made out. Thanks.

HI johnj,

 

Just wanted to add one note to what Floplot said. NIS is not written in native 64 bit but it does fully support 64 bit.

 

Best wishes.

Allen

Just to add, it will support the 64 bit versions, unless it is XP. Norton products are not supported in XP 64 bit versions.

Re: where to download 64bits version?

thank you all very much! NIS 2010 works smoothly on my Win 7 64bits. And I hope there'll be a native 64 bits version of NIS 2011!
