Clear Norton 360 Cache on Mac
Start with the app's own clearing option if it has one. If it doesn't, quit Norton 360 and move the cached files out of its support folder by hand, keeping them in the Trash until you've confirmed everything works.

Norton 360 cache folders you can clear
Norton 360 has no separate cache folder. Its folders hold settings and your own data, so there is nothing to clear safely by hand.
What the Norton 360 cache holds and when to clear it
Specific to Norton 360
The Norton 360 folder at ~/Library/Application Support/Norton holds user settings, logs and cached definitions, so the cache is not a single isolated file. Clearing helps when its logs or definition files have grown large or when updates keep failing. Typical data for this app runs 500 MB – 5 GB. Norton also installs protection, firewall and VPN components in system locations, so this user folder is only part of its footprint.
What changes for Norton 360 after you clear the cache
Your subscription and device slots are managed in your Norton account, and licenses are tied to that account, so clearing the cache doesn't affect them. Background protection, firewall and VPN services are separate and keep running. Because the same folder also holds your settings, check your preferences once the app is open again. If Norton asks you to sign in, use your Norton account details.
