McAfee did not automatically update the fix for the desktop icon issue, I had to reinstall the software myself. Then, the fix did not work until I manually changed the Registry. Makes me wonder if they cannot even update their own software correctly what are they doing with the critical anti-virus updates?

OK that's too bad as it certainly should have worked OK and sorry it didn't.   A small number of people have reported they need the registry fix after the update came in and this far we have no idea why.    This update had nothing to do with protection which all come in normally.

Please can I have the registry fix to prevent the Start Menu "McAfee" folder reappearing after each update even though it has been moved to a sub-folder?
