Added more life to my laptop
Nov 21, 2017 11:46 AM (via Android App)

With my norton security delux antivirus, I was searching for a multi-purpose tool which can heep my laptop healthy. Then I found norton utilities. Its costly ( I paid 1990.00 for three devices) , however its worth after using it. Norton utilites is a best doctor for a computer or a laptop.


I would like to share few of its features which I like the most :




  • It recovers accidently deleted files which might be stored on our hard drive.




  • My laptop had a problem of slow start up which is resolved now. Technically, norton utilities clear and optimize registry, clears bad registry files and create space to boost my laptop to work and start faster than before.




  • So many other options like deframenting drives, locating any duplicate files on my laptop.






User interface is very easy to understand. Right from the begining, installation, activation was easy to understand. I'm sure any new user can also do it without any hassle.


Services and support as I mentioned for my norton security delux was excellent, I believe as this is the same line product it will be best.


Thanks norton, you keep my devices healthy and new. I would always recommend to use norton.


For any queries related to norton utilities, you can comment on my review, I will solve it definetly.

The main using this software is usually to clean up this personal computer's registry which often can come to be beyond touch right after many software updates as well as uninstalls. That can bring about slowed down operations or even lock-ups on the computer. This washes way up registry problems in order that the personal computer can be far more trustworthy. This frees way up memory space and allows you to bring back a well speed PC.


Another Utilities highlight is the dashboard, which demonstrates how to enhance execution, orderly. Another component is the application Uninstaller, permitting evacuation of software packages no more being used or which take up unreasonable assets. I said software packages because, in Add or Remove Program Features in Control Panel have an Option for remove only installed soft wares. But by Norton Uninstaller also shows some software packages to uninstall.


My journeyed with Norton, mainly because I have confidence in their particular merchandise. this system might be set up to run at the same time every day, that you program that to perform.


Not all individuals would be upbeat losing their treats, however that is data, if gained, could be utilized to abuse your protection. I erase it every time before going for online shopping site.


Our computer system hasn't already function this particular crisply as well as seeing that easily since time I purchased this. Norton obtained this place proper. The best value for the money.


In comparison to the older model it's also been enhanced really perfectly.

There are a few other softwares similar to Norton Utilities, but I'd say the Norton version is better than the rest. With Norton Utilities, u can find & fix computer problems, remove unwanted or junk files, find & eliminate viruses & improve ur computer's performance.


Ofcourse, for keeping ur pc well protected & giving optimal performance, u need to keep updating the software, atleast once a week or 2, And also run full system checks every week or 2.


As for me, I like the 2000 version, coz in other versions before/after the 2000 version, there are a few features/functions removed.


For eg: in v.2000, u can remove junk registry key files, unused/unwanted files, corrupt files & orphan files, which is not possible in other versions.


It doesn't matter if ur copy of Norton Utilities or any other software is an old version or a new/latest version, as long as u keep it/them UPDATED!
