How to Disable Mcafee Antivirus on all devices?

Do you need to install a program that requires the momentary deactivation of the antivirus and would you like a hand to understand how to do it? Tell me, what do you use on your PC? McAfee? Then know that it is a breeze: you do not have to do is access the main screen of the software, select the function you want to disable (eg the antivirus scan in real time) and click on the relevant lever.

Attention, however, the deactivation of the antivirus, even if temporary, leads the computer to be "discovered" and vulnerable to cyber threats that can be found every day on the Net: before proceeding, assure beyond reasonable doubt that the program you are trying to run does not contain malicious software (if you do not "trust" the McAfee engine, you can try to perform a multi-engine scan with an online antivirus).

At this point, if you are still interested in proceeding and want to know how to disable McAfee on your computer, or even on your smartphone or your tablet, take a few minutes of free time and read on: find all the information you need below.

How to disable McAfee – for Pc Devices

Before going into the heart of this tutorial and explaining how to disable McAfee on Windows, I would like to point out that the guide was made using McAfee Total Protection, which is currently the most complete and widespread version of the famous Californian antivirus. Without due premise, let’s move on to action!

If you want to temporarily disable McAfee’s real-time protection, start the antivirus by double clicking on its icon on the desktop or in the Windows notification area (next to the system clock), click on the gear icon located at the top right of the window that has been opened and select the item Scan in real time from the menu that appears on the screen.

At this point, presses the button Disable and uses the drop-down menu that appears in the middle of the screen to indicate the length of time during which McAfee protection must remain disabled: you can choose between 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes and 60 minutes, or you can choose to reactivate the only when the PC is restarted or never (not recommended!).

Finally, click on the Disable button located at the bottom right and McAfee’s real-time protection will be suspended for the period of time you have chosen.

If you change your mind, you can instantly reactivate McAfee protection by returning to the menu??> Real-time Scan and pressing the Activate button.

If, however, you do not want to disable the protection of McAfee for the whole system but only for some specific files, do so: go to the menu??> Real-time scanning of the antivirus, presses the Activate button to activate the protection in real time (if necessary) and click on the Add file button located at the bottom right to choose the files to be excluded from the scan in real time.

he more complete versions of McAfee, such as McAfee Total Protection that I’m talking about in this tutorial, also include other types of protection as well as viruses and malware.

How to disable McAfee – for Mobile Devices

For example, by going to the menu??> Firewall of the program and pressing the button Disable you can disable the firewall included in the program, entering the menu??> Vulnerability scanning and putting the check mark next to the entry Do not set a scan schedule (at the bottom of the window) you can disable the automatic search for updates for the programs installed on the PC.

Even if you do not have McAfee anti-virus installed on your PC, every time you log in to Windows, you get a McAfee Safe Connect window? It does not surprise me. McAfee Safe Connect is a free trial VPN service (with 250MB of traffic per month) that protects online communications on Windows, MacOS and mobile devices. It is included as an option in the installation packages of many programs downloaded from the Internet, so it is easy to find it installed on your computer without realizing it. Fortunately it is just as easy to disable or uninstall it.

If you want to disable McAfee Safe Connect so that it does not start automatically every time you turn on your PC, right-click on the Windows taskbar (the black bar at the bottom of the desktop) and select the Task Manager item from the menu that appears.

In the window that opens, select the Startup tab, click on the entry for McAfee Safe Connect and presses the Disable button located at the bottom right. If you use a version of Windows prior to 8.x, you can get the same result by calling theRun … panel (by pressing the Win + R key combination on the PC keyboard) and giving the command msconfig: a window called System Configuration will open, through which you can manage the PC startup and select which software to start automatically when accessing Windows and which are not.

If you want to completely uninstall McAfee Safe Connect, go to Start> Settings> App if you’re using Windows 10 or Start> Control Panel> Uninstall a program if you’re using an older version of Windows, click on the McAfee Safe Connecticon and press on the Uninstall button.

In the window that opens, press the Yes button, wait a few seconds and the program will be completely removed from the system

Easier than that?!

How to disable McAfee – for Mac Devices

McAfee also offers its protection to Mac users. In fact, the Californian company has released products such as McAfee Internet Security for Mac and McAfee Endpoint Security for Mac that protect MacOS from malware designed for the Apple operating system and "classics" virus for Windows (which can not attack macOS, but should be avoided the same if you share files with Windows PC).

Disabling McAfee on Mac is as simple as it is on Windows. All you have to do is start the application by selecting its icon from the macOS Launchpad (the rocket icon located on the Dock bar). Then you have to click on the name of the program in the bar on the top left (eg McAfee Endpoint Security for Mac) and select the Preferences item from the menu that appears.
