[Old Version] McAfee Total Protection 2022 | 3 Device | Antivirus Internet Security Software | VPN, Password Manager, Dark Web Monitoring | 1 Year Subscription | Key Card

Been using McAfee for years, but until now it was just virus protection and the firewall. Decided to try the password manager and its pretty cool. EDIT TO ADD (8/2021): So I came across this review and realized that I never edited it to explain my subsequent experience. About 18 months ago I bought a new laptop and used cloud storage to transfer some of my files. There was at least one file that the storage service refused to upload because it was detecting a virus. This was on a computer that I was using McAfee to scan for viruses at least once per month. And McAfee was swearing up and down that there were no viruses. I am not using McAfee anymore and I am not recommending them.

Love it

I like the price of this keycode card rather than what they want to charge for continuing the service. It has some features I like, scans for updates, cleaning, as well as internet security.

Updated my virus proctection

Its virus protection...so as described, still has its own pop ups to try and get you to add more etc. but it seems to be working....so there is that.

Has solicitations and report ready notifications that cause my PC to lag and freeze up until the pop up appears and I close it. I dont need nor want that garbage when I am trying to do work at the computer. Asked Mcafee how to make them stop as there seems to be no way to disable in settings, received NO answer.

I had noticed that this product was significantly slower than Nortons right away after install, but kept going since this was significantly less expensive. Now 3 months in, the weekly virus scan slows the system so much that I am forced to reboot, and Im not even being really protected since the updates are consistently failing. Tech supports solution is to reimage to a new OS and download their new version. That is not going to happen. And, no, it is not a money back guarantee. After 30 days, they keep all your money. I never do reviews of products, but this is so bad and such a pain that I want to spare others. An update since it is worse than I thought. McAfee itself is a virus. It has installed itself in a way that I cannot remove. The installer program it installed is incompatible with the OS and should never have been installed. Ill continue to search for ways to get rid of it. And McAfee has stolen my credit card info. Well, borrowed it and wont give it back. I cant find a way to remove it from my account or to delete my account with them. This is by far the worst software that I have ever dealt with. Another update: The saga is almost over, months later. I had saved the original installer from when I first purchased Total Protection, and it turns out that the 1st thing that it does is remove any McAfee software that it finds. So I let it do that and exitted. Why couldnt their support have told me this, or better yet, given me that installer? After more talking with their tech support, they were able to get me a refund (which did arrive reasonably promptly) and the support person was able to remove my credit card information from my account. The final tidbit is to actually remove my McAfee account and personal info completely. Their support told me to look under their Privacy information where I found a link which might get that to happen but it seemed to imply that they were only doing this for European customers. Well see.

Very nice and value for money

I used it on only one of my computers so far. A laptop that I had purchased refurbished. I will soon use it on two of my desktop computers. Great deal.

Nice
