FWIW ~ support informs, as of this post:

We do have the Norton Utilities version 16 that is compatible with the latest Windows operating system.
Updates are being released for Norton Utilities version 16, click on the SmartUpdate on the programs interface to download updates.
NU 16 is alive and supported?  Yes.


 Also, NU has not been updated for a couple of years now. It seems it is just being allowed to die quietly.

i have used Norton Util's for 2 years; i have used Windows 10 since May 2015, and NEVER had one issue propblem with Norton Util's; even registered,until last week, WHY and Windows 10 has NOT ONE ISSUE with Norton Util until first seen this error this past week????????

From your image I see you are running Win 10 Preview edition. Norton does not support any preview/beta OS versions.

What version of Norton Utilities are you using? Only the NU v 16 will work on Win 10. And even that has not been updated since before Windows 10 was introduced. So there is suspicions that it is about to be abandoned.

It is also suggested that you do not mess with the Windows registry. There is no performance benefits to be gained from registry cleaning on modern computers.

1) i paid this program within 2/+- years ago?

2) how do i remove my logged in? do i have uninstall it, then reinstall with no log in? do i lose items per no registry for a program i paid for?
