  • The version number is 22.8.1.14. This update is currently available via LiveUpdate only.

When will I receive the patch?

  • As is our standard practice, we are deploying the patch in a phased manner. We have released the patch to randomly selected customers, and will then monitor our telemetry, as well as this forum, for any problems or issues.  Once we have confirmed the effectiveness of the patch, we will make it available to all customers. We will post an update on the Norton Community Forums when we make the patch available to all customers.

How can I manually install these patches?

  • This patch is only available via LiveUpdate, and is being released in a phased manner.

I see the engine for this version on my system, but my product hasn't updated. What's wrong?

  • Nothing is wrong; that's how our updates are distributed for the phased approach. The update comes in two parts, and most people will get the engine. Both parts together will get your product updated. You may need to run LiveUpdate and reboot a few times before your product is completely updated to the latest version.

What's new?

What are the changes in this release?

  • Fixed an issue where Identity Safe login loops and gets back to the 'Get Started' screen.
