Completely remove McAfee of Yoga 900

G ' Day to all,

This has probably been asked before and I apologize if I scrub room for advice.

I have a 900 Yoga with McAfee preinstalled and I want that it removed as soon as POSSIBLE.

Is the identical process typically the case with McAfee proucts, i.e. Uninstall through Control Panel and then download an uninstall program on the McAfee site?

Thanks in advance.

TaxonAnom.

G ' Day and welcome to the forum.

Yes, that's how I got rid of McAfee.

  • new Pavilion 21 t TouchSmart AIO-will want to completely remove McAfee (using a different anti-virus)

    Hello, I will be getting a new 21 t AIO TouchSmart, HP Pavilion and to completely remove McAfee before I install another antivirus - program (have always had problems with McAfee and have had good success with another big brand).

    In the past with other PCs, it seems that even after I thought I had completely deleted McAfee, ("uninstall program") somehow at one time or another something associated with McAfee would jump to the top (can't remember what happened exactly - that was some time ago) and I could never completely remove!

    Any suggestions on completely removing? Will command the unit soon HP-

    is is possible that upon request they wouldn't install it before shipping?

    By chance is perhaps somehow part integral of the operating system/software so that it can never be removed completely?

    I'd appreciate any help! Thank you very much.

    You cannot claim that the software not installed McAfee antivirus. You can and should be able to completely remove your computer McAfee antivirus trial software after the installation. Please, see How to uninstall or reinstall products supported McAfee using the tool of Consumer Products Removal (Development) for instructions on uninstalling the McAfee software and using the Development to remove completely all traces of it.

    Please note that many third-party software installers party be asked to download and install the McAfee software... maybe it's the source of your problem.

  • K4T90AV: How do I completely remove McAfee?

    My computer came preloaded with McAfee protection.  I want to hae Windows Defender as my security and the firewall that comes with Windows 8.1.  How to completely uninstall McAfee so that I can activate the Windows Defender?  I tried to ask the response from the service to the customer and was directed to pay for a service provider.  I didn't ask any security software 3rd party when I bought this from HP directly by phone.

    Hello

    If you have already uninstalled McAfee since its entry in programs and features, try to download the McAfee Removal Tool on the following link and Save it in your downloads folder.

    http://us.McAfee.com/apps/SupportTools/MCPR/MCPR.asp

    One time downloaded, open your downloads folder, right-click on the tool and select "Run as Administrator" to start the process.

    When it has finished, reboot the computer and let Windows load fully before checking if the Defender will now work.

    Kind regards

  • Yoga 11 s how do you remove Mcafee?

    There is a lot of garbage I want to remove a new yoga 11 s. One of them is Mcafee. I spent over an hour trying to figure out how to remove it and really resent Lenovo dumping these programs on my machine.

    Normally, you would go to uninstall in Control Panel to remove a program, but it is not listed in there for some reason any.

    Can someone help, please?

    It wasn't on the list. However, I have run mcpr.exe and removed it. Thanks anyway.

  • Impossible to completely uninstall McAfee program

    Bought 3 McAfee license.  2 programs installed on the desktop and laptop.  Third license installed on the Dell laptop, but some itms has not installed correctly.  You need to reinstall but same problem. Computer laptop but of course purchased pre-installed trial version has replaced it and was left without security. Checked the account McAfee online and showed all 3 licenses in use.  Downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials for protection or safe, but not able to completely uninstall McAfee.  Program will appear in Add/Remove Programs area OK but when click on delete, just an empty box appears.  Happy enough to leave but worried it will conflict with the current Microsoft security.  How can I uninstall completely all the associated files of McAfee? Have reviewed the mcafee programs and folders on the program area but worried if I delete the related programs.  Any advice?

    Your link no longer works. McAfee is taking all customer support for disgruntle downwards. You have recent McAfee virus cures?

  • Can I remove McAfee by AOL? Removing McAfee effect would use my AOL mail?

    McAfee and AOL

    I've been using Webroot anti-virus and Anti-Spyware.  I had McAfee on my computer in the past (I think it was because I use AOL mail).  I noticed that McAfee is still listed in my program folder.  My computer was slow, and I'm looking for things to delete.  Removing McAfee effect would use my AOL mail?

    Hello

    I don't think it would affect the use of your AOL email. But make sure that you have another antivirus in place and updated once McAfee is deleted. (That you already have the Webroot program.)

    You can use the McAfee removal tool to uninstall the program.

  • How to remove McAfee without dropping my flash player IE9 operability

    I just got a brand new Inspiron 5520 with bundled software.

    Whenever I tried to delete McAfee in order to use a different antivirus Soft, my FlashDrive IE9 unresponsive.

    Has anyone encountered the same problem? If yes what should I do about this problem of uninstalling?

    Thank you!

    Hi Eki_fils,

    I agree with ky331, it seems rather strange that the uninstallation of McAfee would affect somehow Flash Player .

    .

    Anyway, try this:

    Download and run MCPR.exe

    • Download the http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exeremoval tool.
    • Click Saveand save the file in the folder of downloads on your computer.
    • Navigate to the folder where the file was saved.
    • Ensure that all McAfee Windows are closed, as well as all other running programs such as browsers, instant messaging, etc.
    • Right-click MCPR.exe and select run as administrator.
    • When you see the user account control dialog box, click Yes.
    • The McAfee software removal screen, click Next.
    • In the contract (EULA) dialog box, click next to accept the contract.
    • When you are prompted, type the Captcha information to validate the security of applications, and then click Next.
    • When you see the message CleanUp successful, restart your computer. Your McAfee product is not completely removed after reboot.

    .

    If you are having problems with Flash Player in Internet Explorer after you complete the steps above, please re - download Flash Player from the link in the post above ky331 and save in your downloads folder.

    • Close all running programs.
    • Double-click your Flash Player file downloaded to re - install.
  • I installed beta 2, and it froze on the epub add on. I uninstalled is installed again the same thing. uninstalled then installed 1.1 epub removed then uninstalled and reinstalled beta 2. everything freezes on the 1st page. I can COMPLETELY remove to reins

    I installed beta 2 of FF4 and initially it worked fine. Then I went to add ons and it froze in fullscreen with epub. I have the screen shot so its all good. It sfull screen and symbol RSS feed at the top left of the screen then below Whats new - epub reader Version 1.3.0.3 then below which its says of bug fixes in some cases FF4 crashed when an ebook with epub reader has been loaded and tabs where switched.
    Anyway, I uninstalled the beta version 4 then installed 1.1 and removed the epub reader. Then reinstalled FF4 B2 but it hangs right on the opening.
    For short holder, I used 2 Beta it seemed wise great speed over previous versions.
    I think if I had to be able to been completely remove firefox and do a claen install it can work.

    Looks like you are using Firefox for Maemo (Nokia N900).

    If you want a completely clean install, you can get rid of your old profile by typing this command in the X Terminal app before launching Firefox:

    .Mozilla CD; MV fennec.bak fennec

    (Who will move your profile in a backup location, so a new will be created. This will hide your bookmarks, history, cookies and Add-ons, but you can restore the old backup profile if you wish.)

  • Yoga 900 wakes up from his sleep when picked up by the short edge

    I want to show Aproblematique I had with my 900 Yoga to see if others have had similar problems.

    I discovered this when I put my Yoga, (who was asleep) in my backpack and then subsequently noticed he was awake. It took me a while to understand what was going on, but I finally decided that she had nothing to do with the backpack.

    My 900 Yoga wakes when picked up by the short edge (as I have done to put n my backpack). You can see in the video:

    Yoga 900 wake when picked up

    (BTW - I'm not press the laptop, I'm just taking it as it is necessary to pick it up by the edge.) Press the lid and there is a pressure on the rise on the bottom. It is the pressure on the lid which seems to be the cause of the laptop to wake up)

    Note that Lenovo has been great and sent me a replacement laptop. But I'm curious to know if others see this same problem.

    Is this a common problem with 900 Yoga?


  • Lenovo Yoga 900 graphics card update

    Hello.

    Some games I play on my Lenovo Yoga 900 crash and the reason is that, in my view, that the graphics card is not powerful enough. Often, the display driver stopped responding. I was wondering if I could pass the Intel HD Graphics 520 graphics card GeForce GTX 980 or something else.

    Thank you.

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    There is no way to upgrade the graphic subsystem on your machine. The Intel HD 520 is integrated into the chipset package. Although some laptops have discrete graphics chips, almost none don't have been socketed. They are welded in place.

    Hope this helps to clarify.

    Kind regards.

  • external battery of yoga 900

    Hi all

    I have a 900 Yoga but I need to extend the life of the battery for a 35 hour trip. Ideas for an external power Bank?

    I see you found the thread, but please see: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-Yoga-Series-Notebooks/yoga-900-travel-battery/m-p/3342482#M41798

    Basically, you would need a Bank of power in which you could plug adapter/power supply of the laptop as the cable has additional contacts to carry the 20V required for laptop power/charging. So far, I have seen no banks USB power that can support this cable directly.

  • Yoga 900 - battery plugged in, does not support.

    Hello

    I seem to have a 'No load' intermittent problem on my Lenovo Yoga 900.

    This happens often when it is fully charged and I unplug for a few minutes and then plug it in again. If I let it go below 93 to 95% it will tell usually "plugged in, charging" again.

    Is this some kind of glitch or a feature? I tried looking to see if I had the setting of 'conservation' and I do not have.

    I have a few days to take it back to the store if I need to. I'd really rather not send it because we have problems of the Stagecoach drop packets that end up getting robbed because we live in an apartment with several locked doors, so they usually it plant next to the door and run off and then someone else takes off with our business. Had it happens a few times with orders from Amazon. (grr)

    Thanks to anyone who can answer this question!

    Comment to Moderator: The model is added to the object for clarity.

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    It is my experience with my 900 Yoga and the Yoga s 900. In this way the system does not constantly on 1 or 2%, which is not good for the battery. In contrast, Mode of Conservation will be charge at ~ 60% and then stops. That has certain advantages, too. Personally, I don't use The Mode of preservation, and so far I have not seen no negative effect on my batteries.

    I hope this helps.
    Kind regards.

  • How to completely remove Beats Audio from my system?

    My computer is a number of product p7-1534, H2N63AA #ABA, running 64-bit Windows 8.1.  The audio driver was an IDT, downloaded directly at HP, specifically planned for my system.  I'm trying to figure out how to completely remove the Beats Audio from my system.  It appears in the Beats Audio, but don't control panel displays in the section programs, so I can't figure out how to uninstall IT... or it can be uninstalled without uninstalling the entire driver?  I tried to disable the Beats Audio screen and it cleared more of the effect it has on the audio, but not all - the bass is still substantially stronger than it should be.  All I want is for the music to sound just as it was initially recorded in the studio, not artificially enhanced by Beats Audio.

    I think that I'm finally rid of him.  I searched drive C for 'beats' and 'beat' and erased all those who appear to be associated with the Beats Audio.  I had to do that three times, each time by removing all tht files Beats appeared in a search.  Finally, after the third startup, nothing showed up in the search.  My audio works just fine and no more Beats Audio.  I guess I could still run beats through the motherboard, but, as long as I don't try to run beats, it loads is no longer automatically at startup.

    Thanks for your time.
