Green check mark boxes on file icons

I am running Norton Security suite from Comcast.  All my files now have a green check mark on them.  I am guessing this is Norton's way of telling me how valuable their product is and its either scanned those files or backed them up.  Is this correct?  If it is a norto feature, how do I remove it - I got enough color on my screen, I don't need a bunch of green check marks covering up my file icons.

Hello alth0017 and welcome!

 

Open the Settings option of Norton Security Suite and uncheck "Backup Status Overlays".

 

Let us know if that works for you.
