Satellite P875-31Z - cannot remove McAfee Security Center

Hey there, I have a little problem, and so far, I have not been able to solve.

I was helping a friend who is not as tech savvy like buying me a laptop, and he bought the Satellite P875-31Z.

Now, it comes with preloaded software McAfee.
I was able to uninstall most of the unwanted Mcafee software, but McAfee Security Center won't go away.

It appears in the windows 8 'remove program' - list, it does not appear in the list of app store windows, and even the McAfee Consumer Product Removal Tool (Development) get rid of it. Well, she at least got rid of photo tile, now it's just a blank tile.

It is part of some software from Toshiba and I have to remove some software that is also crucial for the proper functioning of, say, the function keys?

Push me a little crazy, first time, that I could not get rid of software ^^

I m wondering really you have this problem. On my laptop Win8 Satellite preinstalled under programs and features, there are two outcomes for McAffe:

McAffe anti-theft and McAffe internet Security. I imagine that the same has to be on this P875 too.
What needs to be done is the removal of McAffe Internet security. After restarting the laptop remove anti-theft McAffe and uninstall McAffe Security advisor, placed on the desktop (right click). All that s.

I did the same thing.

    I would like to delete my computer Windows Security Center and replace it with System Mechanic.  I have Windows XP Home Edition.  Can someone tell me how to remove it?

    Windows Security Center is part of the operating system and cannot be deleted. If you want to disable:

    Start > Run > services.msc [Enter]

    Security Center scroll down and double-click it to open the properties. Stop the process to run and change the start to "disabled". MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Cannot depend on Security Center "the Security Center cannot start."

    I'm afraid that my computer may not be protected because I cannot depend on SecurityCenter, would appreciate any advice, thank you very much.

    Original title: when I try to activate the Security Center, I receive a message saying "failed to start Security Center" can someone tell me why?

    Hi Bluehound,

    • Since when are you facing this problem?
    • You did changes to the computer before this problem started?
    • You have a third-party security software installed on the computer

    Step 1

    First of all, check if the Security Center service is set to automatic and started. To do this follow the steps below:

    a. Click Start.

    b in the start search box type services.msc and press to enter.

    (c) in the services window, do scroll down to Security Center.

    d. right-click on it and click Properties.

    e. check if the startup type is set to automatic, otherwise it is set to automatic.

    f. click on the Start button, this will start the Security Center service.

    g. click on apply and Ok.

    Check if you can enable the Security Center.

    Step 2

    If the problem persists, you can also try to temporarily disable third-party security software on the computer and try to check if you can enable the Security Center. If you are able to start, you can contact the manufacturer of security software and check if you need to change the settings. Later, re-enable the security software.

    I hope this helps. Let us know the results.
