Windows 8.1 Pro w/ Media Center - 64 bit -- fully updated
NIS 21.4.xxx
I'ne been trying to find a suitable system maintainence suite that works with 8.1. I have always used NU. It was fine, more or less, until 8.1 was released. I have updated NU to the latest patch. Uninstalled, reformatted [far too many times, it would seem]. I can reinstall and fully update windows - all is fine - install all my software - all is fine - then I install NU 16.2 and things start to happen. Looping reboot, for example.
I have tried several other programs as well ... registry scans seem to always screw something up.
Right now, I'm back to a fresh install of Windows - fully updated - with all the software that I use and I'm leaving it at that for now.
Not really asking tfor technical support on a specific issue, but I would like to know if Norton Utilities will ever be updated - I mean really updated - to be be fully Windows 8.1 compatible. Right now, it seems as if it is haphazardly patched. Other than privacy cleans, I am beginning to wonder if system suites are even necessary, or useful, any longer.
