How do I setup a Norton Product already purchased from a retail store?
To set up Norton product that you've purchased from a retail store, follow these steps:
1. Locate the Product Key
When you purchase a Norton product from a retail store, you should find a product key inside the box. The product key is typically a 25-character code (e.g., XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX).
It may be on a card or a sticker inside the packaging.
2. Visit the Norton Website
Go to the official Norton website: norton.com/setup.
3. Create or Sign in to Your Norton Account
If you already have a Norton account, click on Sign In. If you don’t have one, click on Create Account and follow the prompts to create an account.
4. Enter Your Product Key
Once logged in, you will be asked to enter the 25-character product key from your retail box.
Enter the product key accurately and click Next.
5. Download Norton Software
After entering your product key, you’ll be prompted to download the Norton software.
Click on Download Now and follow the instructions to install the software on your computer.
6. Install the Software
After the download is complete, run the installer.
Follow the on-screen prompts to install the software. It may ask you to restart your computer to complete the installation.
7. Activate Your Norton Product
Once the installation is complete, your Norton product should automatically activate.
If activation doesn’t happen automatically, you can manually enter the product key again during the setup process or in the Norton program itself.
8. Run a System Scan
Once the software is installed and activated, it’s a good idea to run an initial system scan to ensure your computer is secure.
9. Subscription and Updates
Make sure your subscription is valid, and Norton will periodically update itself to keep your device protected.
If you encounter any issues during installation or activation, you can reach out to Norton support for assistance.
