McAffee 32-bit Helper

Jump to solution

I just received an eror message that the McAffee 32-bit helper stopped working.  What does  this mean.

I ran the MVT  and it did not detect any  problems. I also opened the security center and it reported that my system is secure.

Thank  you.

Jerry

Could be just a momentary glitch with something being slow to react.  I searched the forums for "McAfee (note 1 " f ") 32-bit helper stopped working" and got a few hits.   It seems where it occurs frequently the only solution is to uninstall the software via Control Panel, then run the MCPR cleanup, reboot and reinstall from the online account.

But if you are seeing normal behaviour since, I wouldn't bother with that unless things deteriorate.

This the first time it's happened. I will continue to monitor.

I would like to wish you and everyone else a happy and healthy Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
