McAfee Malware Cure

I may be late to the party, but I've found a cure for the annoying McAfee that pops up on the right side of your screen and will not go away without a reboot. Simply delete all cookies and Temp Internet Files.

I know it seems extreme to the average user, but I would never buy a laptop/prebuilt to not then immediately follow up with a clean OS install. Way too much bloatware comes standard.

Dell Optiplex models are mostly for business use and free from bloatware. I think Dell renamed Optiplex, but I have not ordered any lately.

You may be out of luck. Microsoft new driver policies mean if you don’t have a desktop or business laptop, then your non-certified drivers won’t be in the OS image. If you have a modern budget laptop, your options are spend hours to get the NVMe to work or use the OEM image installer from the machine’s UEFI.

Revo uninstaller does just as good of a job as a clean install for those who dont have the time to do a clean install.
