Action Center alerts says that Norton reports that it is turned off and a second one that Windows and Nort6on firewalss are turned off.
When I check they are actually ON!!
There is no date information when these alerts were generated and I can't find anywhere to reset the alert or acknowledge it so I don't have the little red X on the flag saying i should check it.
I don't want to turn off the alert for these alerts.
Of course there is a fundamental question of why the alert is there but until I can determine iof it is a current alert or not I don't know where to start,
If I do turn off those alerts then turn them back on, they are still there!
Can anyone tell me where to reset the alert?

Try going to;
"Control Panel"
"System and Security"
"Action Center"
"Change Action Center Settings" - Top right link.
"Problem Reporting Settings" - Bottom blue links.
"Select programs to Exclude from Reporting" - Middle blue text link.

You can choose to exclude the program if you wish.

Thank you for that, yes that did work, but why can't I right click on the task bar for Action Center.
This has happened to me so many times and I don't know why
Hope you can help me out with this problem

I'm very sorry but I cannot be sure about that... You could try the usual, reboot and see if it works.
