Norton, owned by Gen Digital, provides antivirus software, VPN services, and identity theft monitoring to protect users from cyber threats such as malware and phishing attacks. The company emphasizes subscription-based revenue through Norton 360, which bundles various security features, ensuring predictable cash flow. Norton competes with other antivirus brands like McAfee and Bitdefender, maintaining a strong market share in North America due to its established brand trust. The demand for cybersecurity tools is driven by rising cyber threats, including ransomware attacks and increased remote work, which necessitate robust online protection. Gen Digital is investing in AI-driven threat detection and expanding its offerings to address evolving security needs. However, Norton faces challenges from free alternatives, potential privacy concerns, and macroeconomic pressures that could affect consumer spending on security products.

Windows 11 is finally removing the 32GB FAT32 capacity limit

Microsoft has released new test builds for Windows Insiders, specifically Dev Build 26300.8170 and Beta Build 26220.8165, which remove the 32GB limit on FAT32 formatting for external drives. Users can now format external drives up to 2TB using FAT32 through the Command Prompt. This change, which has been anticipated by users, is a shift from the long-standing restriction that required third-party applications or specialized commands for larger drives. The enhancement applies only to the Command Prompt, as the graphical interface remains unchanged, and the 4GB file size limit for individual files on FAT32 drives still applies. This feature is currently available only in preview versions for Windows Insiders, with a broader rollout planned for future standard Windows 11 updates.

Want to pause Windows 11 updates for as long as you want? Your wish could soon come true

Microsoft is introducing new update management features for Windows 11, allowing users to pause updates more easily. A preview build reveals an option to pause updates through a Windows configuration tool. Currently, Windows 11 Home users can pause updates for up to five weeks, while Pro users have a more complex process for extended pauses. The upcoming changes aim to provide Home users with longer and simpler pause options, addressing concerns about disruptions from updates. Users will have the discretion to delay updates while balancing the need for timely security patches.

Microsoft tightens Windows 11 driver security rules

Microsoft will enforce a new mandate requiring all hardware drivers to comply with the Windows Hardware Compatibility Program (WHCP) standards starting April 1, 2026. This change will eliminate the "cross-signing" system that allowed older drivers with expired certificates to remain trusted. The enforcement of WHCP certification will apply to various versions of Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025. Users may face blocks when installing older drivers on new systems, but existing installations will not be immediately disrupted. Microsoft plans to introduce an "allow list" for vetted legacy drivers to ensure essential equipment remains operational during the transition. The initial rollout will occur in "evaluation mode," allowing Microsoft to monitor driver behavior without blocking software. For corporate environments, Microsoft offers "Application Control for Business" to allow specific software while maintaining security measures.

Windows on Arm isn’t the problem. Bad reviewers are.

Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission from purchases made through links in their articles. Recent reviews of the ASUS Zenbook A16 have raised discussions about Windows 11 on Arm, particularly regarding the performance of Qualcomm's Snapdragon X2 processors. Devices with Snapdragon X chips run Windows 11 on Arm, and Microsoft has improved compatibility significantly, with users spending 90% of their time on apps that run natively on Arm. While some reviews exaggerate app compatibility issues, many users cannot specify which apps do not work. The "Works on Windows on Arm" initiative lists compatible applications, including Google Chrome and Adobe Creative Suite. The ASUS Zenbook A16, featuring the Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme and 48GB of RAM, now starts at ,699.99 after a price adjustment due to a listing error.
