Actually you need to run the windows uninstall first (This clears up used licences for the PC) Then run MCPR. Sounds as if you have used your licenses up . That said best to call tech support for your country they should be able to help.

When you reset the PC is McAfee installed? If so is the PC name the same as you had previously?

Mcafee internet security was installed and working properly before I have reset my pc and my subscription is active till 31 october 2017.The pc name changed after pc reset.In my account page it shows as if my pc with previous name is still using the license.I tried to deactivate that license but there is no such option.
