Customer Reviews
May 10, 2009 -"the program was downloaded from the Norton site without any problems. Set the program to run in the background upon startup. The program appears to keep the registry up to date and I have tried some of the other control panel options without any problems.
Is the program as good as other registry programs, I don't think so at this time."
-G. Gahres
May 7, 2009 -"Norton Utilities has fall behind other utility programs in finding and correcting problems with your operating system. It does a little of everything but it doesn't do a thorough job of anything. I think that it need a complete workover to be competative. I fails to scan the registry very well and allows a lot of junk to remain such as the garbage left by other deleted programs. It doesn't catch shortcuts that are shortcuts to nothing."
-P. Sydell
May 4, 2009 -"Utilities is a great way to handle your PC spring cleaning - it does all the stuff you never get around to doing manually, plus all the stuff you wouldn't know how to do if you tried. If you'd hire someone to clean your house or wash your car, this is a bargain by comparison..."
