Hello T, Bear. Windows 11 Pro won't ever come in the S mode flavor so that isn't part of the issue. What specific issue are you having getting Norton to install? A bit more information would help us understand what you are experiencing.

One issue could possible be with the "type" of account you setup Windows 11 with. To properly use Windows 11 without any known issues occurring check for the account you are logging in as being an account which has admin rights, and, is an account with Microsoft credentials. Not, a local account. More options are available with a MS account.

After Norton 360 install => run Norton LiveUpdate + machine Restart (not Shut down). Repeat.  
Norton 360 = v22.24.1.6 (at this time)
Review Norton Settings to your preference. 
Run Diagnostic Report.
Run Norton Insight.
Run Norton Autofix.
Create Backup Sets to your preference. 
Run Norton LiveUpdate + machine Restart (not Shut down)
Run Norton 360 Full Scan (once)
 

Be sure you are using the Restart command. Not Shut down and startup again if you have Windows Fast Startup feature enabled. If you use Windows 8/8.1, 10 or 11, there can be an issue with the Windows Fast Startup feature.. See more information here. (credit peterweb)
Turn On or Off Fast Startup - W10 - W11

Hello @T. Bear
Welcome to Norton Community

~ other than S Mode and properly removing trial security apps. 
Norton 360 for Windows should be uneventful install.   

Do you get any errors when trying to install Norton?

Are there any non Norton trial security apps on this new PC? If so, you need to remove them using the removal utility for that product.

If you have Windows in S Mode, you cannot install the regular Norton 360. You need to install Norton UWP app from the Windows store. See this Norton Product Announcement.   https://community.norton.com/en/blogs/product-service-announcements/nort...

Here is a Microsoft Support article on S mode.   https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in...
