Removal of Norton which came with HP desktop?

I have the HP Pavilion a6600f and I would like to remove the Norton Antivirus software that came with the machine in order to download and use the suite Norton that comes with my subscription to Comcast Xfinity. I tried to install the version of Comcast on top of it, but that comes with the PC keeps too ride and telling me that I need to renew it every time that I start the pc. It's very frustrating! Itried delete via Control Panel, manually-folder by folder, but it won't let me! So, how can I get rid of him?

Hello

Try to download and run the Norton Removal Tool relevant to the version of Norton you want to uninstall - see link below.

Norton Removal Tool.

Once it finished, restart the PC before installing the new version.

Kind regards

    recently purchased a samsung NX30 camera which came with lightroom 5, after several hours of searching on Google I got it setup properly with the right camera raw to be able to access my raw images. I found that my old laptop is very slow during the processing of hundreds of images that I usually take on a weekly basis.  I bought a new faster laptop, but when I looked for the cd with the software of series and I couldn't find in the mess of Christmas.  I downloaded a trial version of lightroom and got, it works on my new laptop. Is there a way to access the serial number of my version already installed and insert it in the version of track to make it work for me?

    Myron

    If you take the time to register to your original with Adobe installation (which most people do not), you can log in to your Adobe account and get the serial number. If you use a Windows computer and still have access to the old computer where Lightroom is installed, you can do the following:

    1. in the window folder options, make sure that you are able to see hidden folders.

    2. go to the C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Lightroom folder.

    3. use Notepad to open the file, Lightroom 5.0 Registration.lrreg

    You will be able to retrieve your serial number of this file.

  • How can I get a key product validation for Windows XP to the OEM of Vista Business downgrade, which came with my laptop?

    I recently bought an Asus laptop that came with a genuine product key Vista Business OEM. I want to downgrade to XP and have installed a copy of XP OEM for this purpose I have found information on the internet indicating that I would be able to contact Microsoft, explain my desire to downgrade, to provide them with my Vista Business product key, and they would provide me a product key for XP, I could then use to activate the copy of XP I have installed.

    However, it seems that it is more possible, because all the support activation is automated, and I was able to get a Microsoft service on the phone representative to activate my new installation of XP. How can I do to receive a product key for XP and activation of my installation?

    Thank you

    Scott

    Thanks for the replies, you two! I called Asus, and they said that, since they do not recommend the downgrade, they do not downgrade disks provide, or provide for XP Pro license keys in case a user wants to downgrade. I told them about the rights of download, which I had heard before on the MS site support and they have always said they wouldn't / couldn't provide me with a license key, even if it was for OEM Windows XP distribution. Ah, well!

    I don't think that Asus just "recommended" it or not!

    They must conform to Microsoft.

    This operation returned because the time limit has expired.

    Hello

    Defender is not sufficient protection

    you need to install antivirus protection

    you would have had a free trial for a new AV subscription

    This program must be removed before installing another AV

    read this information on the Defender:

    ·                         If you use microsoft security essentials avg avira mcafee norton etc they disable the vista version of windows defender by default

    the basics of Microsoft security has its own version of windows defender

    and other anti-virus programs use their own particular type of application to scan for spyware and malware

    It of nothing to worry and is the default action, which is designed for them to do

    If the above does not apply to your machine to read the information on the below link on how to disable the windows defender service in vista or make an autostart to enable

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-service-in-Windows-Server-2008-or-Vista/

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-for-Microsoft-Vista/

    either of these programs free antivirus try after removing any trial that is always installed

    use the free version of either Avast

    or Microsoft Security Essentials

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=e1605e70-9649-4A87-8532-33d813687a7f

  • How can I reformat laptop which came with the free upgrade to Windows 7. Update download

    I have a Hp Pavilion DV4-1430us comes with Windows Vista and had a free upgrade to Windows 7. I have updated successfully in December 2009. Laptop still works fine, but it's certainly time to reformat.  Only problem is that I don't have the disc of Windows 7 because it was a download.  I believe that the recovery partition will have the older operating system.  Can I create a recovery for the OS system disk I use now (windows 7)?  I don't have any except the original e-mail that said that I ordered the upgrade with a non-functional link on the HP Windows 7 Upgrade site.

    The Vista HP recovery partition may still exist, but, due to the upgrade of the operating system, it may not work. Options to return the computer to a factory State include the marking of the score of "HP Recovery" active using the Windows disk management console or you are ordering and using a set of HP recovery disks.

    Before you recover your computer, please check your email for a provided HP Windows 7 key or use the Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder to retrieve your current Windows 7 product key. Then download the same version of Windows 7, you have HERE or HERE. Now create your installation media of Windows 7 on a DVD or a USB Flash drive. Please download and use Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool to create the installation media.

    G72 259WM laptop... The application and Driver Recovery DVD supplied with the recovery kit (3 DVDs) was not loaded on my laptop when the hard drive has been replaced. I want to intall it butg there install the files on DVD and windows does not load it automatically. I just want my laptop to factory as it was when I bought the system.

     

    [personal information] I could not find a way to do this, please help! Thanks in advance!

    The shop obviously does not use your recovery disks to install Windows on the new drive. I had suspected that when you said that none of the original software has been installed. Recovery Manager also would have been installed.

    I would go back to the shop, with the recovery discs in hand and ask that they make a correct installation, or do the installation yourself. Put the first disk in the CD/DVD drive, and then restart the laptop. If you get a prompt to hit any key to boot from the CD/DVD, press the space bar.
