True Key added from LiveSafe, how to uninstall?

Jump to solution

Hi, I just renewed LIveSafe on my computer and saw a tab labeled Intel True Key.

I clicked on that, was told it was an old version, given a link to click and jumped through the hoops.

Now I decided I want to remove it.  It is not listed in Control Panel \ Programs and Features.

If I right mouse click on the icon in Apps and click on Uninstall, I'm taken back to Control Panel \ Programs and Features ... and it's still not there.

This is annoying.  Suggestions?

I uninstalled everything using the removal tool from McAfee (since I was unable to remove LiveSafe using Control Panel \ Programs and Features).

It went smoothly and I assume with no problems.

I will now mention something unrelated.  When I am typing here in this window, sometimes for no apparent reason, I find myself typing at the end of the line above where I should be.   This has happened more than once and not just today.

So, one problem solved, I removed LiveSafe and reinstalled it.

If you go to Control Panel > Programs and Features & click uninstall Livesafe it should ask if you want to uninstall the lot or just bits of it, try that you don't have to continue if it doesn't offer that.

Actually if you've got that error then best contact support.

Please contact Technical Support directly - it's a free phone call or online chat.

If at first they can't solve it ask them to escalate the issue, but I think it should be fairly easy for them.

I'm wondering if it might be faster, easier, and cost me less time if I were to uninstall LiveSafe using the removal tool from McAfee and simply reinstall LiveSafe.

As suggested remove through your Control Panel/Programs and features first/Restart. Then download and run the latest Mcpr Tool/Restart. MCPR  Then go to your account and download/Reinstall.

If not successful, Then I would contact Support as suggested.

All the Best,
