Windows 10: I uninstalled norton 360 and it completely fried my pc.

I uninstalled norton 360 and it completely fried my pc. Task manager and other apps simply wont open by any means, including the command centre. My apps have no icons and my wallpaper has been completely removed and is non functional. I have tried so many solutions and restarted my pc a thousand times but nothing has changed. I want to avoid resetting my pc, what can I do?

Norton 360 Firewall Instructions

So, just to make sure, you have disabled the Norton and it connects OK, e.g. the firewall is the problem? I would say that the settings for the Norton Personal Firewall would be the same for 360 since same manufacturer. You should be able to input the same
info in 360 somewhere. Sorry, but I'm not familiar with the software so can't give step by step instructions. I guess you could wait for someone to respond that has experience with 360 or go to a Norton forum.

 

Windows 10 Turning Off Norton 360.

Hi. Windows 10 security informed me that I have no anti virus or firewall running. I have Norton 360 installed on a couple of PC's. The Norton Program updates and downloads with no problem and tells me that "I am protected", however Windows Security says that either I have no Security Software or that Norton is turned off. The workaround is that if i disable and enable Auto Protect and Firewall Windows Security says Norton is running and all OK. On restart the problem is back. Norton says that it is a Windows problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled Norton 360 using the Norton Removal and Reinstall Tool with no success. Norton is running in Services (Auto) even when Windows is saying it is not. I wanted to ask if it is a Windows reporting problem or if Norton actually isn't running and any suggestions how to fix it.

 

downloading norton 360, error saying contains a virus

You should disable (or uninstall) whatever you're currently using for an antivirus (you would have to do that anyway, using the appropriate removal tool, before installing Norton 360).

My suggestion, however, would be to ask Norton for your money back -- I don't recommend installing a "security suite" like Norton 360. These products include too many "features" for which you pay but don't really need.
