    Thank you, easy to follow and it worked! Just a warning to everyone: if Norton tells you the product has quit working and you must reinstall it, the installation might turn on automatic renewal WITHOUT your knowledge or consent. This happened to me this year when a month remained on my subscription with automatic renewal turned off. I found out when Norton sent an email informing me the renewal billing had failed and to update my expired credit card information. Imagine my surprise. I had no idea, or warning, that a Norton-directed reinstall would change my automatic renewal setting.

      Last year Norton sneakily updated my antivirus to a premium much more expensive version (for free without asking me), BUT, then they also added auto renewal and renewed my Norton to the WAY MORE EXPENSIVE product! Be careful with Nortons tactics.

      Norton tried that same thing with me, two years ago. Did an expensive automatic renewal, on my American Express card with no advance notification, they are required to send..
      I called up Amex and did a charge back, then called Norton to straighten it out. They agreed to reverse the charge then agreed to the same price as the one year renewal on Amazon. Now after renewal, I immediately remove my authorization for Norton to charge my card a year later.
      Frankly I am sick and tired of "Norton 360 slowing my Win 7 laptop to a crawl with pop-up messages, and painful renewal games. . Will replace this laptop with a WIn 10 laptop, like the rebuilt desktop I have now. No more stupid anti-virus software required ! Yeah!

    I have had a right chew on getting Norton to accept a *new product key* . The *blockage* was my registered credit card had expired - so although it looked as though a card was registered; it wasn't. After a lot of going round the Norton Houses I managed to get the new subscription working only to find out that I had lost the remaining days from my old subscription. Only by Chatting with an agent did Norton fix this *issue* - by cancelling the new subscription and adding 365 days to the old subscription. All's well that ends well (1.5 hours later!)

      @@dcpwebdesigners That's not actually the whole story ;-) After the agent did that (above), the PC I updated became unprotected for some reason (my other two licences updated OK). Eventually after much head scratching, it came down to completely re-install Norton on the main PC. What a faff!

    Best video on the problem ❤
    I found your video after having wasted several hours on Norton stupid website, trying to find where to go to add my new store purchased product key. Unfortunately these companies are such a big scam, they offer minimal help and would rather want people to purchase again rather than utilising what they purchased.. I find that very shameless lack of help. I even watched their own video, that was again a waste of time. Watched another channel's video but useless.
    Thanks a million for explaining in first few seconds of video. It worked perfectly ❤

    Thanks for this, I really wish Bull Guard would never change into Norton. I never had this hassle/issue with updating product key for Bull Guard. It's really a very ridiculous move by Norton to demand subscription to even get the product key activated. I will have to look for an alternative product in the future.

Because if I try and enter the product key on my laptop it doesn't work, so do I need to uninstall norton first and then download and install it again? Thanks

    Yes, quite cheeky ... I didn't go down the same path you traveled, but have for several years done the same - purchasing new due to price difference. Today when I had my new key and was trying to enter it (they are making it more difficult each year) ... I ended up on a page that said it didn't want to lose me, would I like to renew at a 65% discount - which was a few dollars within the price at Amazon.
    just an fyi

    Thanks for the interesting video. You mention there were two ways of adding your new product key, the first option you skipped over and opted for the second option. After you entered the product key using the second option and confirmed you had gone through the various steps in particular auto renewal and succesfully renewed your subscription was there a reason for you then to go the process of entering your new product key using option 1 method having initially skipped over it? Many thanks

    Thanks for the vid - useful to know. You have lost six days on your previous subscription which is annoying. But fully agree Norton is trying to rip you off with the £85 renewal and then the nearly £20 fee if you wait until the last two weeks. Anyone know how to make them work so no days are lost between subscriptions?
