Configuring the Power Source
You can choose the power source for Norton AntiVirus
to perform the Norton Tasks when the computer is idle.
Norton Tasks are background tasks that Norton
AntiVirus performs when your computer is idle.

when your computer is connected to the external
power. You can configure the power source for each of
the Norton Tasks.
To configure the power source
1 In the Norton AntiVirus main window, click
Performance.
2 In the Performance window, in the left pane, click
Norton Tasks.
3 In the Norton Tasks window, under the Power
Source column, click the Configure link for the
Norton Task that you want to configure the power
source.

run irrespective if the
computer uses external
power or battery power.
If you choose this option,
Norton AntiVirus performs
the Norton Tasks when the
computer is idle. It does not
consider the type of power
source the computer uses.
