Update to Mc Afee software Computer running extremely slow

I have had McAfee security software for a couple years now.  The software came with my new laptop.  I do not access the software unless something is not working right.  I just opened the software and saw it has been updated.  Not sure when the last software update was, but my laptop has been running extremely slower than it was before.  It is taking forever to start up and trying to access Microsoft Edge takes at least 5 minutes, sometimes longer.  I have Web Boost on to speed up the Internet browsing, but it does not.  I have App Boost on but that also does nothing.  Is there anything I can do aside from uninstalling McAfee altogether.

What McAfee product and what is the version number there was a recent R30 update maybe during the update things got corrupted. In these cases usually support suggest a clean reinstall after following the FAQ below for removal.
