This may help Himotory - but is it only asking for the adminstration password because we are logged in using a secondary ID? Would it let me upgrade Norton without this password if I log back in using the main account holder ie the original user/administrator? Last year, with only one user set up I am sure it just did it........ any other suggestions please?

Am confused Toureman ...... the link takes me to Technology .... has this question been answered there before? TIA
I think toureman may be suggesting that this question should have been placed in technology section. Don't worry about it.
I think Toureman does this with some posts in How it Works as a way of pointing out that Technology is a more appropriate section.

Oh I see - thanks for the guidance, hadn't thought of tech section ... have duplicated it there so it might get a fresh audience. Thanks again.
'Re install the windows' is the simplest way to recover the password problem.
