McAfee will not open or uninstall on Macbook

McAfee Total protection and its uninstaller will not open on a Macbook  using Sierra 10.12.6. Additionally, VShieldScanManager is on 99.9% CPU. Attempts to open will lead to this error:

------------------

McAfee LiveSafe - Internet Security cannot be opened because of a problem.

Check with the developer to make sure McAfee LiveSafe - Internet Security works with this version of macOS. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and macOS.

I checked, and my mac appears to meet the system requirements of:
