Solve : Removing program files via MS-DOS? |

Answer» I want to remove all McAfee program files from my computer. It was pre-installed ORIGINALLY.

Help.I wouldn't go mucking around deleting files via a Command Prompt panel using DOS commands. Get the freeware version of Revo Uninstaller and try it to remove McAfee.
