When & How to Use Norton Removal and Reinstall Tool?

Author: Jessika Smith

Norton Removal and Reinstall tool (NRnR) can be used to remove damaged installation of any Norton or Symantec product. At times users are not able to uninstall the product completely using Windows control panel because of some security registry entry remains in the windows registry which creates compatibility issue. This can also happen when your Norton file got damaged by some virus.

In such situation you can take help from this tool to remove your antivirus product and reinstall the latest version of software. If you don’t use a proper uninstaller for your security product then you computer might freeze, you will not be able to connect to internet, you system speed might get hampered or you will face installation error. If you are getting any such issue then please call at Norton Technical Helpline Number UK and get rid of these problems.

Note: Before we proceed further I would like to mention that this tool doesn’t remove Norton utilities or Norton family. Even you can use it to remove Norton Identity safe local vault.

Download and Run NRnR

  • Download the tool from Norton’s website and save it on the desktop.
  • Double click your downloaded file to execute the program.
  • Then read the License Agreement and click Agree.
  • Then first click "Remove & Reinstall" and then click Continue/Remove.
