Norton antivirus is a security program that provides various premium security plans for your device. Whenever anyone talks about security programs, Norton is always the first name to prefer. All the plans of Norton offer good security tools. The real-time scanning assures that the system is protected from new threats.
Norton offers a yearly subscription where the user can access its tools for a year reliably. When the Norton program expires, you can renew it and access the tools again. Instead of renewing Norton manually, the user can enable the auto-renewal service. After enabling this service, your Norton program won’t expire.
It will get renewed automatically. Norton auto-renewal won’t stop until the user cancels it. When you are not accessing the Norton program then disable the auto-renewal.
