Windows 10: How do I stop a McAfee popup?

On my new client I uninstalled Mcafee in appwiz.cpl, i can't find a mcafee entry in 'apps' and still seeing this. Dear Microsoft please stop wasting my time

:)

 

Popups from Mcafee "Your subscription has expired"

McAfee popups " your subscription has expired" have jumped up onto my screen about 100 times in the last several weeks. How to make them STOP?

Control Panel, uninstall does not list McAfee, nor does task scheduler Help!

 

McAfee popups

a lot of info for me. never installed mcafee. now im getting norton virus stuff, something about money being taken, being hacked, lots of different stuff.... the mcafee that was somehow in cont panel did uninstall, not listed now, and Ive never seen all that other mcafee stuff. all the w-defender items are checked and say no action is needed, same w/mbytes. never had another one besides mwarebytes.

porthos - I set msoft edge notif from on to off,,,the popup that was there disappeared at same time,,,,will have to see if it fouls up something else...this seemed liked simplesst thing for a novice like me to try, but I dont understand why things were okay all along so far when it was 'on'.

 

McAfee popups

Hi, if you get an indication that your AV has detected a virus, you should take that seriously. Don't simply uninstall the AV or disable it.

You say

- do you mean it's disabled? (Many functions will be if you have a 3rd party AV installed).

- did nothing happen at all, or did it start to uninstall, or what?

Are you even sure you have McAfee AV installed- or do you have one of their other products - see those listed here:

McAfee Removal Tool - McAfee Uninstaller

If McAfee is damaged in some manner you could try to uninstall it. Here are two ways:
McAfee Consumer Support- Official Site

Methods 1 & 2.
Method 2 uses a separate tool you download. Most AV's have such a tool.

If you do that you should find Defender is fully enabled again, and you should ensure it's up to data and run a full scan.
