Uninstall your Norton device security product on Windows

Introduction and prerequisites

This article contains instructions to uninstall your Norton device security app from your Windows computer.

To ensure continuous protection, we recommend you keep your Norton device security application installed on your Windows device.

Before proceeding, ensure that the Norton application is closed if it is currently open.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Press the Windows + R keys to open the Run dialog box.

  2. Type in the following text, then press Enter.

    appwiz.cpl
  3. In the list of installed programs, click Norton 360, then click Remove or Uninstall.

  4. Click Yes to confirm.

  5. Click Next.

  6. When the uninstall finishes, exit all programs and restart the computer.

If the standard uninstall fails or shows errors, we recommend using the Norton 360 Remover tool to remove Norton device security from your Windows device. The Norton 360 Remover tool lets you uninstall, or remove and reinstall, the latest version of the Norton device security app on your Windows device.

You can reinstall the app using the installation file that you downloaded from your Norton account. To know more, read Download and install your Norton device security product.

The Norton 360 Remover tool does not uninstall Norton Private Browser. For instructions on removing Norton Private Browser, refer to the following article: Norton Private Browser - FAQs.
