Recently a number of temporary files are not being removed after running the tracker removal process. In fact, the number of unremoved files is incrementally increasing (first 52, then 104, then 156, now 208).
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Not being tech savy, my concern is if my PC security being compromised in any way?
Would appreciate responses to the 2 questions.
Thanks.

Thank you for the response.
However, my question was not answered as to if my PC security is at risk until a fix is available?
I contacted Mcafee in regards to this issue.
Until their software engineers can fix the program, those files can be removed manually by:
Right click windows icon at bottom left of screen
Hit Run
Type: %temp% in display box. Hit ok.
Delete all files displayed on the temporary file screen
Empty recycle bin
Worked for me. Ran McAfee Tracker Removal. All temporary files were gone
