I may be having the same issue as Vance, Jan. 19 2025. If I click on the EDGE option, it requires I remove the already loaded "Norton AntiTrack" program. Any support being applied to address these concerns?

I get anti-track pop up to enable anti track (I didn't disable so I can't tell how it was disabled). Click and nothing to enable it happens. Norton products becoming to complicated to use and no longer intuitive.
