How to get rid of McAfee pop up notifications? I don't remember installing it, or if I did, I uninstalled it ages ago and now suddenly there the notifications are again. Every post I've seen tells you to go to Applications and use the uninstaller...but what do you do when you can't see the McAfee application anywhere and have no installer?
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.6
Changing the notifications in Safari will get rid on some of the POP UPS, however what often happens is down to the culprit downloading a LAUNCH AGENT on to your MAC.
This is basically a script which is activated on start up to repeatedly launch the Pop, here is an example:
So what to do:
At the top of the screen use the GO dropdown menu, and select GO TO FOLDER.
Go the the /Libraries/Launch Agents/ folder
In here you will find the culprit usually referencing McAfee, so simply place in trash & delete.
Hope this helps.

Really irritating but easily fixed, Thanks
McAfee keeps popping up on my laptop. Can’t get rid of it.
The free Malwarebytes may take care of it...
