Thanks for the response! I will answer both of your questions:
1. When i bought my computer it only had basic word and i had to buy the full package (online) to get powerpoint etc. Will i have to buy it again after the system restore or can i backup the program as can be done with the files?
- If you do a System Restore, you will not have to re-purchase Office. If you perform a System Recovery and reinstall the operating system, you will probably have to purchase Office.
2. I uninstalled Norton (already installed when i bought the computer) as it failed to detect 24 intrusions on my computer. I now have Panda and Malwarebytes.
Can i back up these programs to reinstall before i go on line again after the system restore?
- You can backup these programs, or re-download if you need to. I'm assuming they didn't cost any money, so it isn't a big deal.
