My Norton Utilities for whatever reason didn’t denew so I went and renewed it. But make one MASSIVE mistake I hit the Norton search engine add on thinking it had something to do with the Norton Utilities. Right off the bat my computer slowed way down. So to fix that I deleted the Norton search engine file thinking that would be the end of that. WRONG! Now my computer is now SUPER SLOW! NICE! If their goal was to piss me off by removing that FREE add on mission accomplish. This window 10 is nearing the end its life cycle when I replace it with my next computer the computer safety company WILL NOT BE NORTON!!!
Hello @georgem_howe
are you referring to Norton Safe Search browser extension?
for example: Norton Safe Search - Chrome store here
===============================================
I’m wondering if you installed Norton Private Browser here - which by my experience - is very heavy, especially with default settings…for example: Launch Norton Private Browser automatically when your computer starts
Norton Private Browser has - by my experience - a few default settings that need to be disabled.
as always, your mileage may vary

Caveat: Norton Private Browser is not my daily rider
