Recently an executable for a Steam game got quarantined due to the issue mentioned at https://community.norton.com/en/forums/trojangen8-false
On trying to restore the quarantined item, Norton asks me to select a folder to restore it to. However, no matter what folder I select, it fails, and just returns to the folder selection menu. This continues indefinitely, even when creating a new folder to restore items to.
This is, quite frankly, extremely irritating. I am completely unable to now use ENTIRELY LEGITIMATE software that I PAID FOR. Searching online has turned up nobody with the same issue as me, so I felt it necessary to ask here if anyone has seen this same issue and/or knows some resolution. If not, the intersection of the problem mentioned in the linked post and the inability of Norton to restore quarantined files means I will be removing Norton from my computer entirely so that I can actually use my other software.
FWIW, I am on Windows 10.
