Unable to remove device from McAfee Total Protection

Jump to solution

I tried to remove a device that I no longer own using advice from https://forums.mcafee.com/t5/Total-Protection/Remove-a-device/m-p/673230#M828

But those steps don't work. What I did:

  • Open McAfee Total Protection software on my PC (i.e. Win 11)
  • Clicked the "4 squares" icon at the left -> Click "protect more devices"
  • I saw all the devices I have
  • I tried to click my devices, but there is no "Settings" appear as mentioned in the above post that I quoted

 

I also tried to remove my devices from the McAfee website directly, but after I click my device, I can only select "Reinstall" and I don't have the "remove" option.

Any idea how to fix? thanks
