Big deal!!! Since V24 I have a list of 6 things that don’t work properly. They still don’t; AND I have Norton Level 3 telling me, after they’ve taken my logs 6x since October that they were going to fix these things. I’m holding my breath!!! I’m also holding my breath for an admin to pop by and report something of interest.

Bonjour,

Hier, j’ai reçu la version 25.6.10221 via LiveUpdate. Un redémarrage m’a été demandé.
La mise à jour s’est bien déroulée pour moi.

En revanche, je constate toujours dans l’historique de sécurité, que la “Protection contre les accès à distance” et les “Signatures d’intrusions” se désactivent à l’extinction de mon pc. Je pense que cela fait partie du fonctionnement “normal” de Norton. Je n’espère donc pas de correctif à venir pour cela.

Je partage avec vous tous un bug concernant l’abonnement et les informations liées à l’activation du renouvellement automatique dans l’interface utilisateur.
En effet, malgré le fait que le renouvellement automatique soit activé sur mon compte My Norton, l’interface utilisateur indique que le renouvellement automatique n’est pas activé.

Good catch!! Looking back over the months long reporting of issues beginning with version 24.xx last September, continuing now to version 2.xx . The case for and obvious need is extremely urgent for a dedicated BETA and its dedicated board where these can be seen, monitored and inclusive in each new build release. It also should state in each release note what issues have been corrected that fall into the “under the hood”. My theory is under the hood is where most of our user issues lie, and, its a touch me not area reserved for marketing or whomever. Great catch.

Oui, je partage votre avis. En effet, je pense que cela apporterait à l’utilisateur plus de clarté dans le “suivi des problèmes”.

All I just posted this over in the Tech Outpost board. Wondering how or if at all, this is applicable to some of the core issues being seen with the current Norton product model. Given some of the gaming and other issues being seen and more independent processes Norton is using I am giving this one big wink and a possible yes. Your feedback is a must.

Microsoft is moving antivirus providers out of the Windows kernel

Given this is the future of core Windows protections, I have to beg the questions: 1- Is Norton a part of the Microsoft “private preview” partnership? 2 - Is this a part of what we are seeing with the version 24.xx / 25.xx hardening against user intervention settings at the core of current Norton products? Personally, I am hoping the answers to both questions are an astounding YES, for the benefit of end users and A/V vendors alike. A/V has zero reason to have total access to every aspect of …

Es passiert mit Norton und Gen Digital das selbe wie mit Anderen Herstellern.
Die Kunden werden gemolken, so lange wie möglich. Die Manager von Gen Digital wissen überhaupt nichts von Euren Protesten hier im Forum, da es sie schlicht einfach nicht interessiert.
Und wenn die Kuh fertig gemolken ist und Symantec kurz vor der Insolvenz ( wie damals), dann wird es wieder vernünftig zurechtgebogen, bis die Abozahlen wieder steigen und die dann wieder gierigen Besitzer fangen das Melk-Gemetzel von Vorn an.
Ich nutze nur noch Windows Defender, 9 von 10 Norton Lizenzen sind schon deaktiviert, die 10.te lässt die Person auslaufen. (die läuft an meinem Geburtstag aus, wenn dass kein gutes Omen ist) Dann wars das mit Symantec, nach über 15 Jahren Dauernutzung. Nicht mein Problem
