I have recently migrated from free AVG and Zone Alarm which were incompatible following an AVG programme update.
With free AVG it was possible to schedule a scan last thing in the evening and add an option to shut down the pc if no threats were found, or instruct to fix threats and close. This is not possible with McAfee. You have to be there to start the scan before you can add the shut-down option.
Similarly, it is not possible to schedule an update before the scan, which again is possible with free AVG. Why not? Perfectly good idea I would have thought.
Finally, Mcafee Security Centre drains resources by prioritising its own processes when first starting up your pc, which is not what I want. I usually have other priorities and would prefer to be in charge of scans and updates, not allow indiscriminate and untimely action by the lack of McAfee options to change default actions.
Unless I can solve all of these problems I will not be buying several more copies for other PC's, Macs and laptops. I will find an alternative that will work for me, not dictate to me how it will work.
Any help appreciated, as I have emailed McAfee tech team twice without any response, not even an acknowledgement. Poor service indeed. :eek::(:o
Has anyone else experienced and solved these problems, please?
