Frequently asked questions

How do I run a free virus scan?

Although our paid antivirus plans are very popular, people often want to know if there’s a free alternative to them — and there is. Norton Power Eraser is a free tool you can download that helps to remove viruses and other malware from your Windows PC. You can run it to scan for these threats even if you’re already running a Norton solution or any other security product. If you’re having issues starting your Windows PC in normal mode, you can run Norton Power Eraser in safe mode.

Is a free password manager safe?

The free¹ Norton Password Manager can help you keep your information more secure. An encrypted online vault stores your passwords and lets you generate new ones, plus updates and syncs your account passwords in one place. The mobile version also uses two-factor authentication to confirm your identity when you log in by using both a password and an additional step (fingerprint/face/biometric scan, SMS PIN, or additional security question).

How can I check my Android phone for viruses for free?

Norton Power Eraser isn’t available for Android but you can try Norton 360 protection with a trial* — it helps to protect your Android phone and remove viruses and other malware.

*Payment method required. When trial ends, paid subscription starts, unless cancelled before. Terms apply.
