Honest opinion. Do not touch anything made by Norton it is terrible. Just use Windows built in security and common sense. Notyon will eat system resources and be a nightmare to remove plus its virus protection is not that good

@JimM11 yeah i get the trepidation (word of the day) with windows defender. I think the biggest part is use common sense. One of my mates called me over not long back cause they had a pop up saying "you have a virus click here to download fix" (he clicked the link). I must of spent an hour laughing before i got to format his hard drive and re install windows

@cliffy37 Biggest fear, i honestly would never be able to get any of my pc's back to how they are if had to do fresh install, high speed backups down to about 3 mins now, and back up to that point would be about 10 mins. It's as you say what works best...

@JimM11 is that OS due to installed apps or a seperate drive with data on it? I use a great piece of software called SyncBackFree. My first backup was 8 hours long as it was backing up 7Tb over to external drive, after that it takes seconds every night as only backs up changes, it basically creates a mirror of you data drive. For my OS i just create a image of my OS and installed apps and install that hwne i need to. May not be of any help to you art all but interesting none the less

@cliffy37 Use Paragon, allows me to throw thumb drive on, boot and restore from compressed images on usb ssd drive, normally only working around the 150G mark on the laptops, the important stuff is on the Ethernet NAS, and if really stuck onedrive, but really really hope and pray that never have to go there, unless i have got day's to spare....

of course I have been there. It's when I click the Norton payment options,
I get told I am not on EE broadband
