  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

• Uninstalled McAfee, now the computer does not start - crashes at MUP. SYS

  Hi new to the forums here - I'm pretty desperate at this point - here's the game:

  I guess that the problem lies with the uninstall - never had any problems before and did a reinstall of fees<1 year="" ago. ="" computer="" is="" only="" used="" as="" htpc="" and="" occasional="" web="">

  McAfee, asked me to reboot after uninstall so I agreed.  I assumed that I would run the McAfee removal tool once the computer has been restarted, but now my computer freezes right on a black screen after the initial startup.  When I boot in safe mode, the computer hangs on the last file MUP. SYS.  I have left on all night, still will not get past the MUP. SYS

  I have run chkdsk and found 0 errors.  I also followed the indications of MS here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545 does not.  I used Hiren boot and back up my data.

  Running XP MCE 2005 cumulative 2 - SP3.  The computer is a Sony Vaio - so I did not have a full XP disk, only the recovery discs (thanks to strip sony!).  I downloaded a copy of the recovery console which I can boot to.  Is there a way I can run the MCPR.exe since the recovery console?  What else could be the cause? Thank you very much!

  PS I also unplugged all devices except for my keyboard and mouse.

  Unfortunately I do not know which files to delete McAfee.  I guess there could be hundreds of them.

  I sincerely apologize for bad reading you post. The problem was more than likely caused by the process of uninstalling McAfee. Hang up on MUP. SYS actually has nothing to do with the Ministry of the INTERIOR. SYS file. It is simply the last file loaded by windows when an attempt to start in safe mode has been selected. There are a number of issues that can cause this error. As I said above, in your case, it was likely to 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.

• Vista Sidebar and Media Player stopped working after uninstalling Mcafee and AVG installation

  Hi, I'm new to the Dell Forums, my apologies if this isn't the right place to post this.

  Yesterday, I decided to remove Mcafee completely from my Inspiron 6400 (running Vista Ultimate) and install the free version of AVG. First, I downloaded the http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=107083&lc=1033 and AVG Mcafee removal tool and was save on my desktop. I unplugged my internet connection, uninstalled Mcafee Security Center of programs & features (recommended by Mcafee), rebooted, then ran Mcafee Removal Tool Development. EXE, rebooted, installed the free version of AVG, went online and installed the AVG updates, performed a full scan with no errors. The system seems to work well, but then I noticed that the clock on Windows Sidebar gadget turned black, the deleted with only a yellow box calendar gadget. I tried to open Media Player, no luck because he would not just open. Tried to launch Media Player as an admin, no luck. While my connection is an admin one. There is another connection admin account so connected to this account, but you have the same problem. I did a system restore and also tried to create new accounts, but the same thing happens with the Gadgets and Media Player. I also ran startup repair by using the Vista DVD, no luck.

  Did somebody encountered this problem? There is an almost similar post under Vista (http://www.dellcommunity.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=vista&message.id=41524&query.id=225388#M41524), but no solution. I had a feeling this uninstallation of Mcafee or running the Development. EXE may have messed up with the registry keys for the sidebar and Media Player. I also downloaded another gadget clock, no luck. Y at - it a fix for this? I don't want to install Mcafee again, as I had many problems with MCProxy and Spamkiller causing system crash and Mcafee has no solution so far. I also have spybot running on the system.

  I would appreciate if someone could help me with this. Thank you

  If you have not done so before, run the McAfee Consumer products removal tool symptoms not to do are not documented and are supposed to be unpredictable.  You must reinstall your new security application after completing the McAfee removal.

  Then all the least, your symptoms of failure could guide someone to be able to help.

• Firefox still does not not after the complete uninstall and reinstall

  I use windows 7 and firefox did not work properly.

  1 Firefox open a backup if I close. I have to restart my computer to open it again.
  2. no matter what I can not change firefox to be my default browser.

  I tried to fix both of these problems by doing a complete uninstall where I get rid of all the files related to firefox and then did a reinstall of the thesis. The problems are still there. I need help especially to make my default browser firefox

  Have you followed the steps when removing Firefox below?

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

     

     Click the close button

     

     ).

  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

  WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

• Firefox does not completely uninstall

  All begins innocently enough that these things don't...

  I use a Dell Dimension 5150 XP Pro with Service Pack 3.

  When I finally (recently) has decided to install Firefox, I tried integrates with Win IE 8. I don't think not of what add-on I installed it, but it worked well with the exception of a single Web site. The password box automatically fills with an unknown password that disappears when clicked on. Normally, in the past with IE 8, when I typed the username and my password, it overrode the outstanding. It worked well once in Firefox, but after that the default password overrides mine and I can't access the site properly (it can be seen, just no model no downloads, poster or comment on the son or previews of the threads can be seen).

  So, I used CCleaner to completely erase history, the Cache, passwords, Firefox etc. That did not work. I uninstalled Firefox from the control panel in Windows XP Pro (but the case was still under Program Files and Firefox Mozilla desktop icon was always on the desk.

  So, I uninstalled Firefox, then uninstalled IE 8, restarted the computer and reinstalled IE 8 and always noticed that the Mozilla folder and icon were always on/in the computer. I also disabled MS Silverlight in Firefox (I never used in for example)

  So, how to separate Firefox IE 8 and how to replace the default password?

  Thanks in advance.

  COR - el,

  First of all, let me thank you for all the time and effort to try to solve this problem (actually, two of them).

  After several hours, making several system restores, uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and I.E. 8, I finally decided to spend $129 (later it became $199 for software support coverage a year with Dell.) We spent about 2 hours (with the help of the free 30 day trial of Revo Uninstaller Pro to completely uninstall Firefox and I.E. 8 (with CCleaner and 3 Firewall de Comodo spyware blocking software I had installed on the computer.

  The main problem was in fact due to having the ClickFree of Iomega software installed as a backup of the system in the case of the blue screen of death. As an external hard drive, I can start the USB port with the software window. Now, I thought that as causing a problem, because to have it installed with the password to work and before installing Firefox. Also, I haven't had not updated of software (by plugging in the running) for some time. It runs in the background, in order to keep the changes as they are made, but as I said, I was refreshed (make a backup update) for some time.

  Regarding the password, wellllll... There is a saying about mercury retrograde (which excludes the communication and transport) havoc with the electronics and communications (letters or emails are sent or will be delayed or be sent to the wrong recipient or misread). When I went to type the password which ended in "ing" I had misread to read "uh." I can actually read enough good - usually - but not this time. DUH!

  If the problems are solved. Thank you once again. Your advice will not lose. I went to the links you provided and saved the pages for later use.

• How to completely uninstall a computer labview and avoid to occupy the license

  Hello

  Usually a labview can be installed on three computers. Now I already installed all and will install in another computer. So I need to uninstall one of the three and want to know how can I completely uninstall the labview. Thanks a lot for your help.

  Use License Manager TO deactivate the license.  Will release the database entry of NO, so that you are OK to activate the license even on a new machine (can't really uninstall LabVIEW - the absence of activated license will prevent the use).  As I remember reading the license agreement, you can do up to 4 times per year.

  If you do not have access to the old machine (that is, because it fell from the roof or something like that) call OR service and they can manually remove activation.
