Enable or disable Operating System Trackers in Norton AntiTrack

Your Windows operating system generates a unique advertising ID for each user on a device. This is used by developers and advertising networks for activities such as providing relevant advertising in applications. When the advertising ID is enabled, applications can access and use it in the same way websites can access and use a unique identifier stored in a cookie. Thus, advertising companies can collect your personal data and use it to provide more relevant advertising and other personalized experiences across their apps.

The Windows OS Tracker blocking feature in Norton AntiTrack helps you keep your online activities private by blocking tracking and targeted advertising from the Windows operating system.

This feature is enabled by default in Norton AntiTrack. To disable the OS tracker blocking feature, follow the steps:

1. Launch Norton AntiTrack.

2. On the Norton AntiTrack home screen, click the Settings option in the top-right corner.

3. On the Settings screen, move the slider to disable the OS Tracker Blocking feature.
