Run custom tasks

Norton automatically checks your system and chooses the best settings to keep your system secure. However, you can run some specific tasks. You can choose the specific tasks that you want to run by using the options available in the Custom Tasks window.

You can choose your own combination of tasks for a one-time scan. You can run LiveUpdate, back up your data, clear browsing history, free disk space by cleaning up disk clutter, and optimize your disks.

Run custom tasks

  1. Open your Norton device security product.

    If you see the My Norton window, next to Device Security, click Open.

  2. In the Norton product main window, double-click Security, and then click Scans.

  3. In the Scans window, under Scans and Tasks, click Custom Task, and then click Go.

  4. In the Custom Tasks window, check the tasks that you want to run.

    To select all the tasks, check Tasks.

  5. Click Go.
