So, no matter what version of McAfee you have, the algorithm of actions will be approximately the same in all situations. So, when you first start your McAfee antivirus, you will see that some of the items are deactivated. If you downloaded the antivirus from the official site, then you will have the latest version of the antivirus installed, and if you bought a license, you will see a subscription notification.

As you can see in the screenshots above, you have the firewall and real-time scanning turned off. Yes, and other functions should be configured correctly and for yourself. You need to start with real-time scanning. On the right you will see 3 items that need to be configured. First, go to the first section "PC check".

Tm you have to set up a check, i.e. select the folders to be scanned, which the antivirus should check. We recommend that you set scanning of both local drives in the "configure scanning" section.

Next, go to the "scheduled scan settings" section. Here you must enter the dates and select the folders that McAfee will scan automatically. The frequency of scans will depend on the intensity of your work on the Internet, and work with unverified files. If you often use such resources and files, then scan your PC once every 3 days, if not very often - once a week, if rarely - then once a month. This is quite enough to find threats in time.

For now, we leave the first section and go to the "firewall". Only the settings button will appear on the right. Go to them and simply activate this function.

Return to the first point and go to the "real-time scanning" section. Enable this feature in the same way.

That, in fact, is all. After that, you will see that your computer is under full antivirus protection to www.mcafee.com/activate.

You can also customize the antivirus for yourself in more detail by going to the "functions" section and setting the protection priorities in detail. Actually, there is nothing complicated there, you will only need to enable all the necessary functions, periodically going to the appropriate sections.

And on this we say goodbye to you, good luck to everyone and see you again.
