How to Activate Silent Mode in Norton?

Norton scans your PC in the real-time and when you start your system it keeps running in the background. While running the scan process it might show you notifications and security alerts and these pop-ups can be really disturbing, especially when you are doing some important task. Norton Silent Made makes sure that stops the background process and suppresses notifications and alerts while keeping you protected from virus and malware.

The software goes silent when you are doing a task on your PC high level of processing power, like when you are working on full-screen mode, watching movies and playing mobile games. There are two ways of activating silent mode. Actually, the software automatically activated the silent mode when you switch to full screen mode for watching a movie or playing a game. The moment you will leave the full screen mode, the silent mode will automatically get deactivated.

Another way of activating Silent Mode is a manual one. This method is used when you want to activate it for a specific time period. Like for example, you are giving a presentation in a meeting and you do not want to get disturbed by any pop-up, then you can activate it manually. For this, you need to follow the given steps:

• Open your Norton Antivirus software and click on the Settings button.
• In the Settings section, click on "Administrative Settings" and then look for the "Silent mode" row.
• Move the switch under "Silent mode settings" towards the left to turn it On.
• When the silent mode dialog box appears, use the drop-down menu to specify the duration for which you want to keep it activated.

Once the time duration expires, Silent mode will automatically get turned off and your Norton program will start functioning properly. The software also gives one more type of Silent Mode which is known as Quite Mode. This gets activated when you are burning a disk or recording a video using Windows Media center. Quite Mode has its own program list and when any of the programs in the list gets open, quite mode automatically gets activated and when you close that program, it gets automatically deactivated. It works like Silent mode only. It stops the background process and suppresses popups without compromising your security.
