You can prevent Norton from managing your firewall by disabling its restrictions and ensuring your network settings are unrestricted.
It can be quite risky without any security measures in place for several weeks. Malware, phishing attacks, and data breaches are more likely during this time.
Take it seriously. Remove Norton completely—it’s not worth it. Stick with Windows Defender. Alternatively, consider free antivirus options such as AVG or AVast if you’re uncertain.
Only use trusted tools that let you fully control your computer and network access beyond the firewall. Avoid programs that request unrestricted access, as they may cause issues or security risks.
