Is Norton Mining behind my back or is it just broken?

My computer started to use 60~75 MB of my SSD and it does NOT stop !

I have already uninstalled and installed it from zero.

WHY IT DOES NOT STOP?

I have this problem since I saw that Norton started mining and I DID NOT ACCEPT TO MINE.

Is Norton going to be held responsible if my EXPENSIVE SSD starts to wear down?

In this case, I don't think Norton was mining on your PC, because the GPU consumption was 0%. Instead, Norton might be performing a scan / removing threats / installing updates.

NCrypt.exe is the miner.  If it is not in task manager its not mining.  I did opt-in to mining but I have it turned off right now, Ncrypt is not in tasking.  You turn it off, it stays off, even after a computer restart; you have full control over that.  If you don't opt-in, I'm not sure if the exe file is even loaded but it will not mine.  Based on comments it seems it is loaded.  I'm sure is can be disable from Start-up too.
