That way, in the unlikely event that you do ever reinstall McAfee on that system, you will still have your download and activation rights.Ģ) If you plan to replace McAfee with a more robust 3rd-party AV/security suite, it's not a bad idea to get all of your 3rd-party productivity and other programs/apps installed first. I just did so on this new Dell 8900 Win10 box.Ī couple of "pearls" from the "been there, done that" camp:ġ) It's not a bad idea to "activate" and "register" the OEM McAfee on the system BEFORE you uninstall it, as explained in the TS article for which Borg 386 provided the link. Download the MCPR tool from and save it to a temporary folder on your computer.Yep, Borg 386's advice to use the MCPR tool is the way to go.Īs a McAfee refugee/survivor from many years back, I always remove it from my OEM computers.
