    How to stop mcAfee notifications


    I have McAfee installed. But I get these notifications. Now I have one asking me for

    "Time for one quick question"

    And it wants me to rate it.

    It is a large box in the bottom right corner which takes up space and covers any work or browsers open. I do not want to answer the question and I do not know how to get rid of the box/notification. Can you please advise.

    Thank you

    :)

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

  3. Stop McAfee Notifications on Windows 10

    How do I stop the annoying McAfee update notifications on Windows 10,
    short of uninstalling McAfee entirely
    ?

    The McAfee software subscription came with the laptop, as part of a deeply discounted add-on. However, since activating it (major headache as to even apply the key, I had to uninstall the pre-installed trial software with assistance from McAfee Technical
    Support), I get notifications every couple of hours that a new update is available, which
    may require rebooting. Even if I apply the first, shut everything down, and reboot, another annoying notification is along in a few hours!

    So, now I try clicking "Remind me later" to schedule the lot for a few days hence (an option is 2 days later). But no, within a couple of hours, the annoying message is back I have no idea how many updates McAfee issues per day, but it is ridiculous to
    think that someone is going to reboot their computer every couple hours. I've also tried clicking "Cancel," to no avail.

    McAfee does not appear in the Windows 10 System Settings -
    Application Notifications control window, leading me to believe this is very poorly architected software indeed. The only online help for these complaints, dating back to 2010, seems to be UNINSTALL MCAFEE.

    Any other suggestions?
