Any ideas please?
Welcome,
What security software is installed and running?
Thanks
Basically I want to start-up NU along windows 7 (just like so many other programs automatiacally start up along Windows. e.g. your virus scanner, automatic back-up etc.). It's pretty bothersome to each time having to open a seperate folder and then fire up the NU utility. I'm sure these tasks can be automated?(or at least give us a choice).
Secondly I want an NU icon in my system tray for easy acces. Is it really so hard to do in this time and age? Or are the people at Norton just leazy? I doubt it, Because these very things were possible in NU 14. As usual the procucts that bring in the most $$$ get their undevided attention. Other products just have to wait, regarding impovements. That's hardly a healthy company policy and I'm already considering leaving Norton for what it is worth.. Bitdefender ans Kaspersky are just as efficient. Just to name a few. Don't think you're on top of the world, because those other companies aren't exactly sleeping either..
I'm not sure how you would get NU starting with Windows, but I have NU pinned to my Taskbar - just right click the shortcut & select Pin to Taskbar.
I like Norton Utilities 16. But how do I make it start-up along Windows? I don't see a setting for this. Also I'd like to minimize it to System Tray for easy access. It doesn't seem possible. Am I the only one who think this is annoying?
Krusty13, in all my post I have been talking about minimizing to the SYSTEM TRAY, NOT THE TASKBAR. If you don't even knwo the difference between those two, I'm afraid you can't help me. Thanks anyway.
I do know the difference, thanks, but I did fail to read your post properly.
Sorry about that.
's Ok. And I didn't mean to lash out. I know you're just trying to help - which I greatly appreciate. Actually I feel frustrion towards Norton, not towards you.
Thanks PeterWeb.
I didn't know about this and was able to figure it out.
Thanks again.

Have you checked your Windows Disk Management feature to see what drives are listed?
Maybe you are seeing memory card readers being listed. I have that on one of my computers.
Bill we are following up to see if your issue was resolved with the last suggestion. Can we assist further?
Cheers
Hello Bill. Have you added the NU16 directory to the exclusion list for NIS not to scan it?
Cheers
