Yes, I tried all that but I figured out a solution. I reinstalled McAfee then used the McAfee uninstaller. That solved the problem with any hidden commands in the library.

Thank you for your reply.

Hey there, UHN_03.

We understand you're wondering how to stop the prompt from McAfee, since you are trying to remove that completely from your MacBook Pro. To confirm, you removed every app that is related to McAfee? If there were additional apps installed with that app, you'll want to ensure each of those have been moved to the Trash.

To begin, you can see if restarting your MacBook Pro can help with that pop up and fully removing that app: Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac It may seem like a simple step, but it might help.

Let us know if the issue continues. Take care!
