My Win 10 PC loses network connection. Disabling Firewall allows it to work. How can I get McAfee to not interfere with my network?

If you choose to use System Restore, you may have to check your Windows updates/Update your McAfee Virus Scan (Engine Versions) and check for any other add-on or program that may be effected by restoring back to a earlier point in time.

Should you need further assistance I am certain my Colleague PeaceKeeper will pick up this thread. I apologise however I must call it a day. As I have been online since 4:30am (EST) this morning.

Wishing you all the BEST

Well, thank goodness for System Restore.  It says it did not complete correctly, but it looks like it did.

To be safe, I took Malwarebytes out of quarantine first.

No way to back out Adwclean changes that I could find.

Never again will I use those.

I have my apps and customizations back.

I have restarted McAfee, and it comes up now.  I went ahead and turned the firewall back on.  We'll see what happens.

Sounds as if your PC was infected. Try getsusp from

put your email in the preferences and see what it finds. Anything it finds is sent to Mcafee and new detections added to the engine updates.

Glad that you seemingly are back to normal. Please make sure everything is updated and current. After monitoring your system, let us know if it is indeed resolved.

Thank you
