Windows 10: McAfee Pop up

I keep receiving a pop up in $ when I am in the UK advising me to buy Mcafee and update to a 2.5x faster microsoft experience. I already have a subscription to Mcafee which I update a couple of months ago. Can anyone advise how I stop these pop ups as they appear when I am presenting during work calls and this is very embarassing. Thank you

Block the McAfee renewal pop-up

Hi Wil,

Thank you for your helpful response.



I have followed the steps in the first link but have not installed Malwarebytes Free yet. I was waiting to see if the McAfee renewal pop-up is gone. So far so good!

So you recommend installing Malwarebytes Free?

Thanks again Wil,

Laurie
