Uninstalling McAfee
    #5289943 - 02/11/06 08:20 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

I downloaded the 2006 McAfee Security Suite. It was using up so much RAM i decided to uninstall it, but i get an error saying there is a missing uninstallation file, i can uninstall a few of the programs within the suite, but cannot fully uninstall it. Ive tried deleting the McAfee folders under Program Files but it says that there are 2 .dll files running and permission is denied.

Its causing IE to shutdown, Outlook Express shows a few errors, amoung other things.

Anyone know anyway around this?

I had to uninstall McAfee security suite on a friend's laptop.

I'm not sure whether or not it was the 2006 edition, but this link helped me out.

That's not going to work, if his uninstall file has been removed or comprimised. Installing again from scratch will create a new uninstall file (just a log of everything that's been done to the system as part of the install) and that will allow him to follow the directions on that link.

I tried reinstalling and uninstalling but i still got the same error.

I rebooted in safe mode and just deleted the McAfee and McAfee.com folders from Program Files and everythings running smooth.
