McAfee problems

I had the same problem. The normal uninstall doesn't uninstall everything (surprise surprise).

I found the remains of the McAfee package by going to the settings page of Win11/Apps/Installed Apps, and uninstalling from there.

Also in the win11 search box type "Startup" and select Startup App Disable any MCAfee entry there and close down your computer before starting it again.

From memory, I had to open the Registry Editor (regedit) and remove every entry for McAfee I found there.

Google registry backup/restore before messing around with the registry

Normal uninstalls usually uninstall very little. I always use Revo Uninstaller (free version) which runs the official uninstaller then scans for leftovers in the reistry and files, which you can select and delete as you wish.

I've come to believe that some of these virus checkers are viruses in themselves.
