Summary

This article will assist you in installing and registering your McAfee Security products.

Installing McAfee Security software included with a retail box 

Before you begin
Check for other security applications. If you have other security software installed on your computer, remove them using the instructions provided by their product manufacturer. Removing these security application is necessary to prevent application conflicts and degraded performance.


Check for older versions of McAfee Security Applications
If you have an older McAfee product on your computer that is identical to the product on your CD, you can leave the application installed. The installer for the new programs will check the installed version. If the versions are identical, the installer will skip the installation and allow you to extend your subscription.

If the version of your McAfee security suite is not identical to the product from your retail box, remove the current products using the instructions in TS101331 before you install the new version from the CD.


Determine which installation method to use
Use the following information to determine which installation method suits your needs:

• Web installation (Recommended)
  Installing your McAfee Security product online is the best method to use under the following conditions:
• Your computer does not have a CD drive
• Your Internet connection is fast
• You are installing a multi-computer license on a second computer 

 

• CD installation
  Installing your McAfee Security product from a CD is the best method to use if your computer has a CD drive, but has a slow Internet connection. This avoids a long download time.

NOTE: To ensure that your computer is fully protected, you must connect to the Internet to download updates after the installation completes.

Solution 1

Web installation (recommended)

1. Open the product packaging and locate the Quick Start guide that includes an Activation/Product Key.
2. Open a web browser and go to the web install link on the card.
3. Select your country and type your Activation/Product Key.
4. When prompted, register as a new user or log in with your existing McAfee account.
   
   NOTE: You can only use your Product Key once to register your application. If you see a message stating that the registration number has already been used, but you have not installed the product, try typing it again. If you have previously used the key, you cannot proceed with the installation.

After you activate your product online, you can use the CD and follow Solution 2, or log in to http://www.mcafee-setup-retailcard-activation.com/ and install from your McAfee Account.
 
If you cannot register your product, contact McAfee Customer Service using phone
