Allow me to guide you through the process of temporarily disabling/enabling McAfee security on your Windows PC. To begin, you’ll need to access your McAfee security program:
- Access McAfee Security Program: Start by locating your McAfee program icon on your desktop. Alternatively, you can find it at the bottom right corner of your screen, represented by a small McAfee icon. Click on either of these icons to open the McAfee program.
- Navigate to Settings: Once the McAfee program is open, locate and click on the “Settings” option.
- Real-Time Scanning: Within the Settings menu, search for the “Real-Time Scanning” option. Click on it once you’ve found it.
- Temporary Disabling/Enabling: To temporarily disable McAfee security, you’ll typically find an option or toggle switch labeled “Enable Real-Time Scanning” or something similar. Click on the toggle switch or option to turn off real-time scanning temporarily.
- Confirmation: McAfee may prompt you to confirm your action. Confirm the temporary disabling of real-time scanning if prompted.
- To Enable McAfee Security: Follow the same steps as above, but toggle the switch or option to turn on real-time scanning once again.
By following these steps, you can easily toggle the real-time scanning feature of McAfee security on your Windows PC, providing flexibility when needed while ensuring your system remains protected against potential threats.
Now here you will see option to set timing to resume “Real-Time Scanning” or permanently disable it until you Turn On manually.
Next step is to turn off “Firewall”, you have to go to “Setting” and click on “Firewall” option, and you will see Firewall status “ON”, just click on “Turn Off” button as shown below:
Now here you will again see option to set timing to resume/activate “Firewall” or permanently disable it until you Turn On manually.
