    Hi

    I have W10 home version 21H2 build 19044.1826

    I have PC Matic/Supershield as an Anti Virus and scans come up clean,
    but I am getting popups in the notification area sayinf I have 5 infections
    and to click on a link to update McAfee Attachment 372394

    Please se the attached.

    THE PC had McAfee installed so I uninstalled it with Revo Pro but it seems it was not fully uninstalled, but
    either way, how do I stop the popups and how do I check to see if I have a virus problem.

    I apprecite any comments or advice.

    Regards

    Daniel
    It sounds like an issue with the push notifications feature in Chromium based browsers (which includes MS Edge). Please see if the instructions in this Malwarebytes Labs article help or not.
    Turn notifications on or off - Google Chrome

    Hi

    Thanks to all who contributed, in the end I wnet back to the previous scan I did with PC Matic/Supershield
    and read the log.

    It mentioned that it had found the issue and recommened updating my Chrome Browser, which I did and have not had
    the problem since.

    I also completed the Spyhunter final bit, but had not had the same issue since I upgraded Chrome \

    Thanks again

    Regards
