Norton Desktop, a discontinued product from Symantec, used QAG files for its quick access groups. These groups provided organized access to items within the Norton Desktop environment.
The file is a settings file for Norton Desktop rather than a general-purpose document. The format is obsolete and is no longer in common use.
Open the file with Norton Desktop on Microsoft Windows, if a compatible installation is available. The file is intended to be used by Norton Desktop and may not display meaningful content in a modern text editor.
Because Norton Desktop is discontinued, current Windows versions may not run it without an appropriate legacy environment.
The quick access group settings can be recreated manually in another desktop or file-management application if necessary.
