HOT TIP! Exploring the commands packaged in VC's standard configurations is a great way to learn how to build your own. You can also clone a command as a starting point: just right-click and select "Clone" (or type Alt-C).

Nortons recently began to block VC from starting.  My computer worked perfectly fine until a Nortons update was performed.  I have tried to move the VC.exe file from the Nortons quarantine but unless I remove nortons completely I cannot get VC to run.

Any suggestions?

Contact Norton.  Ask them to fix their program.

Or uninstall it.

Usually it is possible to create an exception for files and folders in any antivirus program.  You could try that.

Switch to NOD.


You can try version 2.1.4.8 of VC but really you should be filing a complaint with Norton. Usually they have systems in place to report false positives, which is what this is.

Figured out how to exclude the file properly.  All is good now. VC is working again.
