after review of norton actions it was determined that it removed the files. please disregard but it may be useful to others to see this if they run in to this problem.

Thank you for reporting this @Nicon4454. If it helps, you can also just unzip and run SrvSurvey.exe directly - it doesn't matter if the app if officially installed or not. (I will update the wiki about this too)
