To use remote control features with Norton products, navigate to the Norton support website and sign in to your account at my.Norton.com to access services like Norton Ultimate Help Desk or Parental Controls.
For IT support, you may also be directed to a remote support site like LogMeIn to provide a PIN and download a rescue applet for a support session.
✅ 1. Remote Access for Support (Norton Agent Remotely Controls Your Device)
If you’re contacting Norton Support and want a technician to remotely access your device to help resolve an issue, follow these steps:
🔹 How to Start a Remote Session with Norton Support
Go to the official Norton remote support site: ▶️ https://help.norton.com/remote
(Or you may be redirected from https://norton.com/remote)Enter the 6-digit PIN given by the Norton technician.
This PIN allows the support agent to securely connect to your device.Download and run the “Norton Remote Support” tool when prompted.
The agent will gain temporary access to your system to diagnose or fix issues.
🔐 Security tip: Never allow remote access unless you initiated the support session yourself via norton.com/support. Scammers often impersonate Norton.

✅ 2. Remote Management of Your Devices via Norton Account
If you want to remotely manage your own devices (like viewing protection status, running scans, etc.), Norton offers a Remote Management feature:

Go to the “Devices” tab. Here, you’ll see all devices with Norton installed and linked to your account.

🔧 To Turn Remote Management On/Off:

ℹ️ This is not full remote control like TeamViewer or AnyDesk — it’s for remote device health management only.
❌ What Norton Does NOT Do
Norton does not offer remote desktop or screen sharing tools for you to control another device remotely (like TeamViewer, Chrome Remote Desktop, etc.).
It also does not allow remote control of your computer by anyone without your explicit consent and a session PIN.
