Comparison Trend micro or Mcafee ?

I actually tried that too & as read this a while ago & it still seemed private mode was the problem, as I did an image this morning I will redo the entire install again & refuse info again just out of interest, I may be wrong but the checkmark only appears after the install then private mode is OK.

As it takes 2 mis to reinstall McAfee, I totally understand where you are coming from.

And if you polish your RAM sticks, it goes even faster I literally LOL reading your Site Issues & Feedback post, hilarious

Just a "doh" moment on my part, yes, you do need to set one of the default browsers McAfee supports to get rid or the prompt on the UI to "protect your browsing" otherwise it will continue to stay there. So I made Chrome my default Windows browser (2nd favorite browser) but will still use Brave. I clicked to it when I was talking to phone support (toll free) and I mentioned "the McAfee supported browsers are Protected", then it hit me, Brave isn't a supported browser, so I changed it to Chrome, now all is well with the UI Dashboard. Phone support was very nice to work with

Just use COMODO.

Is that the thief?

On my system I haven't encountered any problems using Webadvisor in Firefox. Just today it stopped me after entering wrong url. Good additional protection for my fast fingers

I also had no problems installing Webadvisor on Firefox and it works perfectly.

The problem with @simmerskool is on the privacy warning, information collection was declined.
Firefox was reinstalled, but McAfee wasn’t.

The rejection of information handling is probably stored in McAfee’s settings files. McAfee needs to he reinstalled for this to be reset and warning to be issued again.

This is not a McAfee failure or user error, the user decides they do not wish to allow McAfee to collect visited sites, which is crucial for the operation of the feature.

@simmerskool , reinstallation of McAfee takes roughly 2 min for the uninstall and 1 more for the install.

There is additional checkmark in the extension settings to allow it to work in private mode.

your recollection sounds correct and better than mine
