I have just factory restored a HP Pavillion tower and have removed the McAfee from the Programs and features and also deleted the keys bar one in the registry editor - clicking on it to delete the very last entry tells me that it isn't accessible .
Anyone got any ideas on how to remove this last remnant from the regedit please
Run:
https://service.mcafee.com/webcenter...3D1cisq1p060_9
Also consider:
Revo Uninstaller Free - Remove unwanted programs easily
After a Macrium backup image and new restore point:
Ccleaner, Glary Utilities, Wise cleaner registry cleaners
Not to suggest you take any action as a result of the commands below because you can really mess things up, but I'm curious what output you get when you execute these commands from a command prompt after you have completely uninstalled McAfee:
cd\
dir *mcafee*.* /s
Thanks zbook the removal tool worked a treat
The cmd prompt mjohnson did not come up with anything so I am assuming the removal has indeed removed the software even that last reg entry that could not be accessed - never mind it is gone thank goodness
That's great.
You're welcome.
