APK Files Not Removed By Norton

Norton identified a list of apk files on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge that are malicious. The Norton application does not remove them. The list just keeps getting longer. This is not good!

What kinds of malware are being detected in these APK files?

Could you be referring to the App Advisor function finding apps that are being flagged as possibly dangerous?

What version of NMS are you using?

are APK files from installed app or obsolete from uninstalled app.

 

Yes. Tried a file manager to do it. I think I need to be logged in as root. Don’t know how to do that in Android.

If Norton identifies something but does not remove it . . . Need I say more?

Have you tried restarting your phone?
