I'm in the process of diagnosing several computer problems on another forum. They asked for a Speccy report, which shows that Norton Security Suite is still installed and "Enabled / Up to Date" on my system. I uninstalled Norton late last year using Revo Uninstaller and the Norton Removal Tool, plus manual deletion of a couple User folders which both programs missed. I have been using Windows Security / Windows Defender for all of 2021. My system shows no running Norton processes that I can find.
The only Norton files left on my computer are several empty / orphan Scheduled Tasks in the System32 folder, and a couple of .jse scripts in the Windows Help folder. Could these be what Speccy is seeing? Or does Speccy read the registry to determine installed and active software?
