I stopped subscribing to Norton 360 at the end of 2015. I seem to pick up all the latest malware and viruses due to my carefree son's downloads no matter what antivirus program I am using - Norton, MacAfee and others. I decided to just use Windows Defender for the time being. Now that I am not using Norton, I wanted to free up space by cleaning out old Norton files and thought ARestore might be one of theirs.
