Turning on or turning off Apply updates only on reboot
LiveUpdate obtains latest definition updates and the
program updates that keep your computer secure from
the latest security threats. Definition updates contain
the information that allows Norton Internet Security
to recognize and alert you to the presence of a specific
virus or a security threat. Certain program updates
require system restart for the update to complete. The
Apply updates only on reboot option lets you choose
how the program updates needs to be applied.
w
The Apply updates only on reboot option is available
only on Windows 7 and Windows 8.
When you turn on the Apply updates only on reboot
option, the Restart Now and the Restart Later options
appear in the Norton LiveUpdate window. When you
click Restart Now, your computer is restarted and the
program updates are applied. When you click Restart
Later, the program updates are applied when you
restart your computer.
When you turn off the Apply updates only on reboot
option, the Apply Now option appears in the Norton
LiveUpdate window. When you click Apply Now, the
program updates that do not require system restart
are applied instantly. However, the program updates
that require system restart are automatically applied
