I did as requested. Restart. Same results. Then I disabled "Fast startup", restarted. Same results. I guess next I will shutdown and start afresh leaving forever faststart off. Just a side note: I also have a problem post in the Password Manager section where I have had to remove its use from MS Edge, which is also playing havoc on my mobile device. So I do not have PM anymore. It will not download and install from playstore. I think that Edge and Norton don't mix. Also strange is for a long time on my laptop I could not use the mouse to hover and scroll something like files in file manager, I would have to "click" on the section I wanted to scroll first. Now since PM has been removed from Edge extensions the functionality of "hover and scroll" has returned.
I will let you know my final results. On the reboot.
