Hi Guys, Hope you can give me a litle advice on this problem. I have tried numerous times to get rid of McAfee antivirus to no avail. Is there any way I can delete it though the Registry. I am using Windows 10 at the moment. No problem if I cannnot do it that way. I guess I can always reinstall the whole system.

Thank uou for any help.
 
Try GeekUninstaller force mode if needed.


Download the everything search engine.
Type Mcafee into the search window of the program.
Click Edit Select all.
Right Click highlighted items.
Copy Full name to clipbaord.
Post here.


Or boot to safe mode.
Run everything program per instructions above.
Delete all Mcafee items.
While in safe mode the drivers and .exe will not be loaded and will delete, much easier.
