Norton 360 Deluxe 2026 Ready, Antivirus software for 3 Devices with Auto-Renewal – Includes Advanced AI Scam Protection, VPN, Dark Web Monitoring & PC Cloud Backup [Key Card]

Super affordable. I buy every year as this is the best deal. Norton has been around for many decades and is very reliable providing any needed support and strong protection. Arrived the next day. Extremely easy to install . No cd needed just the product key.

This review is about how to activate the new key if you have a subscription that expired. Do it in this sequence: First go to Norton.com and log in. Then open another tab and type in Norton.com/setup. Enter the new key there. It will ask for your credit card for the auto renew. Then open up the Norton App. Click the Account Icon on the top right of the screen. Go down to the Serial Number and click on it. You can enter the new key there. Then it will activate it and the new subscription will show up. If you don't want to auto renew for next year, be sure to turn that off on your account before the subscription expires. Hope I save someone time from trying to figure it out.

I installed the software on three different operating systems with three different versions of Windows - Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10. For Windows 7, when the software download completed, it had trouble connecting to the Norton system. After clicking retry 3 or 4 times, it finally connected to the Norton website and completed the installation. The software can create a load on Windows 7, slowing down the system to a screeching halt. Even though the scan was cancelled, it seems to continue running in the background. The Windows 8 and 10 systems run better with the software. My one dislike is the fact that even though the Norton version I paid for through Amazon came with a key code, I was still required to enter my credit card information to proceed with the first download, allowing an automatic renewal of the software when it expires. I have enabled the option to shut off automatic renewal, as there is no indication of what the renewal price will be. I like the option to customize a daily scan time at 2am on one computer, and 3am on the other two computers. I hope this software is effective in blocking viruses and ransomware on my computers.

Good

First, this was supposed to be a download, said upon purchase the key would be given. It was not. A box with the key was delivered the next day with PRIME. When I downloaded it, it came up as a trial, not the one-year subscription I paid for. It kept asking me to reset my email and password over and over. After a couple hours, I finally got logged in to find they had my address of 6 years ago and I could not change it. They also had my visa info of 6 years ago, no way to change it. Waited 2-1/2 hours to reach someone on a chat line who spent another hour and a half trying to change my address. Finally I got a supervisor who was able to set this up my taking access to my computer and answering questions I had. If you have nothing to do all day and like spending all day on what should be able to be downloaded correctly in a couple minutes, this is for you. However, I'd describe it as a worst nightmare situation. Unfortunately I had downloaded what I thought was a one-yr subsription on a 2nd computer, which now I have to uninstall and reinstall what I hope will be the one-year plan.

I bought this for my sister, and she hasn't had any viruses since.

I've been using Norton for quite a number of years. Seems to me it does what it's supposed to do. It's easy to install. I ordered the Key Card Version so I have the physical product key in my closet. Years ago I read reviews regarding Norton; i.e. renewal agreements, key card vs download key, magazine articles comparing security suites, etc. Here's the bottom line: Norton 360 Deluxe appears to be a good product; however, it rankles the heck out of me regarding their marketing by means of automatic renewals. They're unclear just enough to make uninitiated users wary of how to purchase the product and how much to spend. Not all users pay the same price for the same product. To make it worse, seems to me those with little understanding or knowledge of what's happening pay the most. Yes, I know many software companies are using the subscription route to software marketing, and many use auto renewal. I find that disturbing. I've been a devoted user for years and I have to guard against Norton walking me into a renewal at a price triple/quad what I can pay just by buying a new subscription -- yes, they call it a subscription. I only own the product for a use period of one year. Then, if I'm not paying attention, they'll hit me with an exorbitant renewal charge. To make matters more dubious, at the end of the subscription, Norton will send you an offer of renewal for actually less than buying a retail new subscription, but includes a prominent disclaimer that it will renew for four times the offer they're dangling in front of you. I couldn't get Norton support to tell me if that was a cancellable subscription or if I was committed to the much, much higher rate a year in the future. So, I went back to my technique of buying a new retail subscription, at the lowest price I could find, because I knew I could then immediately cancel the auto renewal as soon as I had it installed. I have the new Key Card in my possession, then on the day the old subscrption expires, I install the new. What a stupid, stupid process. Apparently, Norton makes more money by this devious/dubious marketing technique than they would by respecting current customers or by pushing annoyed customers to try another product. You have to take care of yourself. Other marketers are using the same technique.

Why pay so much more for Norton Antivirus??? Buying direct from Norton and you will pay $50 to $60 for the exact same version?? Get it from Amazon for under $20!!!
