Been using this utility set for the last 4 years, yet suddenly for no obvious reason, ALL the utilities bar one simply stopped working. However I try to start them, via the main utility centre, from where they install themselves as explorer add-ons, as options under drive properties, even double-clicking the executables, they just ignore it.
Only installing the usual MS security updates for December can be associated with this sudden problem, and as we all know, Norton stuff is just appalling about interfering with other stuff, or being interfered with by other stuff.
It is also known to be virtually impossible to uninstall properly, although I could probably do this if really pushed. My problem is that some of those utilities are quite useful from time to time, making me reluctant to say 'sod this for complete rubbish' and banish it forever.
Does any body have any idea what might help - certainly the symantec site does not !
