Resolved Norton 360

I am dual booting on my PC with W7 and W10 on different hard drives.
I am using Norton 360 with W7 (I have used Norton for many years as I trust it and it has been trouble free.)
I am also using Norton 360 with W10.
Do I really need a Norton 360 installation associated with each OS. I have a 3 PC license with Norton at the moment.
Thank you guys

Thanks Steve. So one Norton on my PC will not cover both OS. I will keep the license as it is on renewal then,

If you are talking about the terms of software licenses - the terms of which we agree to abide by when we install it - we need a license for each OS in a multi-OS computer. So in your case, you are using 2 of the 3 allowed installations.

 

Bill is correct. Just make sure you keep Norton updated and run scans on both drives.

 

Thank you all. That's my question answered comprehensively.
I will mark this as resolved shortly.
Just a thought, I also run Quicken and a couple of other old programmes that I am fond of, on XP within W7 Pro on the Virtual machine that comes with that OS. I never connect to the Internet or read emails in XP but have the free version of AVG security running in XP just in case. Am I being paranoid or does Norton cover that as well via my W7 license.
This is just out of curiosity really, but thanks for reading .
Best wishes

I would check when AVG support ends for XP as most AV's were only supporting for a couple of years after MS support for XP ended.

 

AVG in my XP updates and installs virus updates and then reports that the "pc" is fully protected so it seems to be adequate considering I never connect to the internet with that OS.
Thanks guys for all your help.

 

Just a silly question - where do the AVG updates come from?

 

Very good supergeek l think we have exchanged comments before in the same light hearted vane.
As I suspect you realise, I never collect emails or use a web browser in XP.
I bet anxiety is rising down there, THE LIONS ARE COMING !
