Depuis un mois je n'arrive à ouvrir norton utilitilies ni norton driver Updater et impossible d'atteindre le support. Quand j'ai eu le support, l'agent m'a laissé sans avoir résolu le problème. Voici le message que j'ai reçu: Bonjour, La mise à jour des informations de votre compte Norton a été effectuée. Le fait de s’assurer que les informations de votre compte sont à jour nous permet de vous fournir un service plus efficace et rapide. —Votre équipe Norton ALORS QUE JE FAIS FACE AUX MÊMES PROBLÈMES AUJOURD'HUI.
