Removing the McAfee Agent

Thursday, August 16, 2018 Articles, Tips Comments Off on Removing the McAfee Agent

Need help removing the McAfee Agent? If so, open up Microsoft Notepad, place the following code. Once entered, save as .bat or .cmd file. If you maintain multiple devices, put a copy on a USB Flash (or on your file server) so that you can access it easily from Windows Explorer. When executed, it will launch a Command Prompt session. You may not think this is important until you notice that McAfee is blocking Windows 10 Upgrades and future versions for compatibility reasons.
