Alert viewer not responding

Jump to solution

Dear McAfee

My McAfee Total Protection alert viewer is not responding and Chromium Container Delegate is filling the memory and disk space. This has happened following a recent Windows 10 update. It is preventing me from using any internet browsers. Can you please advise how to fix this?

 

Thank you

Hi @Ghiraldini,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused!

Kindly uninstall 3rd party Antivirus and reinstall the McAfee software.

Open McAfee and open settings go to firewall and select as recommended, if issue 
persists please let us know.

I discuss in another post uninstalling and running the MCRP tool before reinstalling.  This appears to have worked for me.

This problem has been reported by more than 20 people in the last 3 days. my post was closed by a moderator without a resolution. I also no not have any 3rd party anti virus software, the alert viewer does not work, which leads to other complications with memory, CPU and disk consumption my Mcafee.

 

My subscription ends in a 2 months and after this type of support I think I'll go elsewhere

Since I didn't receive anything else from support, I just uninstalled and reinstalled McAfee.

Seems to be working for now.

Seriously? We have to uninstall/reinstall to fix something they broke?
