[@CartinaO]

Thank you so much. I just did this, it was very easy to follow . Thank you.

[@richholman9590]

I am very grateful! Neither Norton Antivirus or Malwarebytes were getting rid of this pop up and my machine was virtually unusable. This simple fix stopped the issue immediately. Thank you!

[@sue-anneludin8848]

Thank you so much Laurence! You save my laptop from being thrown violently at my wall. Those notifications were relentless and they have now disappeared. LEGEND!

[@user-ii4gu4xc4f]

Normally I don’t leave any comments on google, but this video saved my life absolutely, I should have watched it earlier instead of getting the stupid McAfee app and wasting my money

[@charley878]

mcafee is the virus. I hate macafee for doing this

[@HalcyonDaze33]

Dear sweet baby Jesus, you saved my bacon brother. I had mcafee popups over everything else on my screen. I'm glad you talked me through it because I couldn't even see part of what you were doing. Thank you thank you thank you. you are a life saver!

[@Tommy-yi6wx]

Similar experience here. The pop up noise was very annoying. Life saving video for sure!

[@DavidWise-m9n]

Many thanks for this clear concise video. I successfully removed these fake, aggressive, intimidating, disruptive and fearful virus notifications (pop ups), on my Windows 11. You are a star, and I can fully understand how it freaked out your Dad.

[@jordanvlogs6348]

Your video literally saved me! I was getting all kinds of false alarms about viruses, especially from McAfee in particular, which was so confusing and anxiety-inducing. After watching your video and following the directions, I was able to completely get rid of the nasty, annoying notifications. Thank you for the helpful and concise walk-through! :)

[@Crumbl3d-1]

Same for me

[@tomcanty3105]

Omg....my wife click on one of those emails, what a pain. Thanks to your video, this analog man, trapped in the digital world, removed it inside of a minute. May space and time bend for your dreams and wishes.

[@charley878]

Mcafee virus started to pop up on my wifes computer today. Found your tutorial and it worked right away. I found 2 notification scripits that were basically just a bunch of jumbled up characters that spelled nothing. Blocked them and immediately POP ups stopped. Thank you for the video and information.

[@BerbyWatson]

When you showed a picture of the popup, I knew I had the right video. Thank you so much for solving an annoying, distracting problem.

[@yorandaingram1991]

Veeeerrrry annoying. This tech company tried to charge me $200 to remove them WTH

[@bigface1682]

These are the kinds of videos the world needs. Your content fits within the reason KZbin was created. Bravo.

[@tjmmcd1]

Thank you SO MUCH. Everything you stated worked PERFECTLY on my PC with Win 11, after I suddenly received MULTIPLE, NON-STOP (fake) McAfee ads stating my pc was infected with multiple viruses. On the last step on the 'notifications' page, under, "Allowed to send notifications" I only had FaceBook, (which I also disabled) AND something else, which DID NOT say McAfee, but something else. I didn't write down the name prior to removing it, but when I did so, the fake McAfee popups immediately CEASED. Bless you!!!

[@kaohsiung99]

Same here!

[@vuk895]

I don’t have any site added and still have mcafee on my desktop😢

[@224flash]

Thank you, worked perfectly to remove fake McAfee popup ads which had literally taken over my computer.

[@propfella]

Thank you, these pop-ups were driving me mad and thought I'd never get rid of them. I almost resorted to a complete reinstall of Windows until I did a KZbin search and found this tutorial. You were right. it took just a few minutes and my headaches were gone. Thanks again.

[@benny_booferd]

Thank you so much for this! I accidentally got these while trying to find a textbook for college and it's been incessant for days! I appreciate your simple and easy to follow instructions.

[@sheIIseaa]

i thought i was the only one lol i was trying to find textbooks for a class and got bombarded with these messages never again

[@kendramckinnon8370]

OMG! Same!!!😩

[@lanade7557]

Thank you. I accidentally got one of these pop ups while trying to download some important files, and I have spent the last 2 hours trying to figure out how to solve the problem. I watched your video and the problem was solved in less than 2 minutes.

[@Dreamydarkful]

I knew instantly it was fake and how it got there, but had no idea how to remove it, thank you for the easy explanation.

[@joellak5860]

Thank you so much! I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates a keep-it-short-and-simple type video on how to deactivate these! Take care!

[@Young______________forever]

Oh my god I have been on hundreds of videos since yesterday and I was going crazy because of frustration and anger you saved my life 😭

[@jdreece]

This post here was EXACTLY what I needed to correct those annoying pesky little "freak out" messages.. Usually I would've reformatted, but this truly worked!!! Stoked!!

[@adamkirby6181]

I NEVER leave comments on videos but was so pleased with how simple and effective your explanation was I felt compelled to share kudos. Thank you for this, very well done!

[@MadeleineBamfield-Dillon]

Thanks a lot. These pop-ups have been driving me mad and I had no idea how to remove them. I'm not the least bit techy but your solutions was so easy to follow. Thanks again.

[@deefee701]

You're a life saver. I was able to follow this for Microsoft Edge and delete two of these ads.

[@lqx3ct]

i thought i was actually going to get hacked! tysm :D

[@alexanderthegreat6682]

I was getting upset because I thought it was McAfee itself sending malware but this was a life saver for me, thank you so much!

[@micahstocks-greaves870]

Thanks so much for providing this video Laurence, my poor daughter was freaking out about having allowed a virus to infect her laptop, and now I (an IT illiterate mom) look like an IT legend for fixing it 🤗

[@Durgemann]

I try to go to this 17 year old website and not only is it defunct, but it gives me these annoying popups. Super appreciate this video, haven't seen popup spam in so long I forgot how to get rid of it.

[@freddy4412]

It worked! I even had Microsoft on my computer trying to figure it out and they couldn’t. They kept trying to get Mcafee itself to stop sending me notifications. And I kept telling them it wasn’t actually Mcafee. Thanks for info! Really appreciate it. I thought I had a virus.

[@PandoraFlakes]

Thanks Alot those McAfee pop ups were relentless. I work at home if I didn't watch this video before my shift, I would've been in big trouble.

[@Stress_._Free]

May I ask how you accessed settings without accidentally clicking the pop up ad? My pop up is blocking the setting button I can’t get to it (new to this)

[@JO-zi1sl]

Thank you for this! I was getting relentless pop-ups and the virus was even opening new tabs in my browser. You made it so easy to stop the chaos.

[@steveclark3486]

Brilliant. very greatfull indeed. Have not got Norton Installed, so I knew that these ads were fake. Ads were appearing every 30 seconds or so, and very annoying, as couldn't get away from them. Clear and easy advice.

[@NsemeBernardMesue]

Thank you so much. This is short and simple. It has successfully helped me to remove these fake disturbing notifications.

[@stevecoe6639]

Was genuinely worried I had virus! Scanned my comp twice now and nothing...then saw your vid! Thank you for making it! It's got rid of the pops ups 👌

[@TheBluemindedGod]

Man, I'm glad this video wasn't just another scam, because I was getting desperate. Thanks dude!

[@dwong3214]

thank you so very much, you have saved me hours of frustration dealing with these fake mcafee popups with your clear concise instructions to stop these annoying nonstop popups and noise

[@PogChoke]

THANK YOU. i have a different antivirus so i knew they were fake, but they kept popping up. they said that i had 5 viruses so i scanned my pc on my other antivirus software and i deleted them. the popups were still showing so i searched this up. you are a lifesaver

[@Derekeatsrice]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH THOSE MCAFEE POP UPS ARE SO ANNOYING THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@lornaharrison604]

Thank you so much. It was driving me crazy, I had 25 pop messages while trying to follow you instructions!! Lifesaver

[@lordEzra2024]

Thank you very much BOSS It worked exactly the immediate peace and quiet 🙏 . I only dealt with it for like 5-10 minutes from the start until I find your video and finally turn it off. I can’t imagine people dealing with this for more than 10 minutes!!! Our hero thank you for peace and quiet.😂😂😂😂

[@nathanmcdougalsr5697]

Thank you so much for a short and to the point instructional video. Pop ups immediately disappeared!

[@johnp4000]

Thanks for this , these popups came out of nowhere but I was suspicious as didn't have McAfee, hard to believe it was so simple to stop them!

[@Pebs_dandysworld_781]

Thank you so much! My laptop screen actually turned black at one stage. I thought I was going to be down hundreds of $ to buy a new which as a single Mother I wouldn't have been able to afford plus with the cost of living crisis we are all experiencing. You are a legend! P.S for anyone else who tries this method it also works with normal Google as I don't have Google Chrome so I was worried about that. Cheers mate 👍

[@charleswaterman8890]

You are a prince, and obviously a great son! Virus warning popup messages have stopped thanks to your video. Huzzah!

[@dipakbhatta6554]

Thank you so much. Finally I am get rid off these non sense Mcafee virus notification since few days although I do not have installed Mcafee software. Thank you again.

[@mmdiscua]

[@BubbleOfJelly]

[@holmeserica1]

Thank you immensely!! You are my hero. The pop ups were relentless. I'm now a subscriber. 🙂

[@Christine-rg2ev]

Thank you very much for this video about removing these dreaded pop-ups. I do not use McAfee so I knew they were fake. They were not present on the other browsers that I use, just Chrome so I removed Chrome then reinstalled it and they still returned. I followed the very clear steps in your video and they will not be reappearing!

[@yorandaingram1991]

OMG!!!! Thank you so much!!! this computer tech company was trying to charge me $200 to remove these pop up and I did it watching your video. Is it okay to say I Love You🥰

[@ericjervis2655]

Thank you! I had the Fake McAfee pop-ups on Microsoft EDGE browser; your instructions to remove in the Chrome settings worked just as well for EDGE.

[@susanneely5810]

You win whatever awards are available to win today. I was losing my mind.

[@beahamm6331]

Thank you so much for explaining this so easily. I was having a hard time even finding out if the pop up was real or not and this helped a lot since I could find the website it was coming from.

[@doxlove9321]

You have literally just saved my life - this pop up was driving me insane with both the sound and interruption on screen. I am forever grateful✨💯🙌👑

[@artebirklaus]

Thank you for this instruction. Had these popups start appearing today and it was terrible. Have a good day!

[@SteveWagg-v8z]

Very happy to add my thanks to the many other people who have found your video so helpful. Clear and concise and totally successful in getting rid of a very annoying problem.

[@CindyBraddock]

I thank God that I found this. Much love to you, because I think this worked. I paused the video and went through and found two sites that kept opening (one seemed to be a fake Yahoo, and I got notification after notification. I have no idea who you are, but I just subbed. I will have this in my YT history for later if I forget.

[@dorothysteier2218]

This was the best help video I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much!

[@rukshanaahmed61]

[@BrentCochrane-b5u]

This tutorial was a great help to remove the popups from my Firefox browser. Many thanks for this.

[@shamanbeartwo3819]

Thank you!! I am sick of EVERYONE'S pop ups!! But I kept wondering why I was getting notifications from McAfee and Norton when I don't have it or claims that my credit card was denied when McAfee tried to update, etc. And sure enough, in the notifications was the culprit.

[@kieralaforest2864]

Thank you for the clear and concise instructions! I was about to lose my mind!!😅

[@zarintasnim3975]

U saved my life my heart dropped when I was getting the notifications actually thought I got virus

[@DanielBerthiaume]

Thanks Laurence. Do you have a version of this vidéo for Mac Safari ?

[@federicoparente3310]

Thank you so much for these simple to follow effective instructions, life can be uncomplicated !

[@charleswbasden6037]

I was helping my dad remotely with the same issue and your video came in handy. However, he did not have Chrome installed - only Edge - so I explored within Edge (since it now based on Chromium) and found the same notification settings although not in the same place as in Chrome. It would be good if you added this for Edge too.

[@hagendf]

I just did this and it worked. Thanks. Also, I recommend doing a virus scan on your computer after the fact.

[@dvxluft]

THANK YOU, I thought they were real, but I went to my windows and found out it wasn't. So, then I was really confused. But THIS VIDEO HELPED ME OUT

[@pattystauffer4212]

This totally helped me and I am so glad that you made this video. Thank you so so much.

It helped! Thank you so much! You are a godsend! I have two Chromebooks and one of them got the fake warning and I panicked and I fixed it! And I’m trying to protect my other Chromebook as well since that one was a replacement for the one I used to have prior to my mother passing away in April of 2022. Because I got a cracked screen and trying to protect that Chromebook and prevent myself from malicious websites on both of my Chromebooks as well as my Windows laptop. Thank you so much.
