Norton Insight issue since 27 August

For the past couple of days, on both my W 7 x64 systems, Norton Insight background task shows as "Cancelled", it cannot complete. I can leave both pc's idle for 20-30 minutes, no joy, the Norton Insight backround task does not start. NS reports nothing. Idle quick scans and other backround tasks complete fine. I have Identity Safe disabled in Settings and I've noticed also that with 22.7.1.32 version the Identity Safe Maintenance task does not exist anymore under Backgound Tasks.

I can only run manually the Norton Insight task and it completes ok. I'm on 22.7.1.32 version.

It is also reported here: https://community.norton.com/en/forums/norton-insight-fails-run  by another user. Anyone else have noticed something similar??

If a guru is seeing this thread please advise Symantec.

Thank you.
