Windows 10, Xbox App, and Norton Security

Hi

Does anyone please know how to modify Norton Security to allow me to stream the Xbox One on Windows 10?

When I turn off Norton Smart Firewall it works fine, so it must be something in the Norton Firewall stopping the stream.

Thanks

Uninstall it as it's worthless.

Quoted for the truth.

This.

Norton does the following.

-Slows down your pc
-Embeds itself deep in your system
-Pops up with screens you don't want to see.

Basically it's a virus.

Please get rid of Norton. The antivirus stuff built into W10 does the job. If you want that bit more security then get something like Avast (or Eset if paying for antivirus makes you feel that it's more secure!).

Malware-bytes is good too

Disable Norton's Firewall. Use the Windows Firewall.

Thanks for the comments.
I've not had any problems with Norton slowing the PC down so I'll probably just use it as an AV and use Windows own firewall.

Just remove it, it hooks into Explorer all over the place, bluescreens waiting to happen.

Are you referring to the new Norton Security?
The old Norton's were rubbish but they seem to have improved lately.

What AV would you use instead?

Thanks
