anti-virus software

[PeterD]

Since updating to MacOS 10.12.2 (16C67), my McAfee virus protection software has not been working. Do I need to update it? I can't see the virus protection software anywhere in Self Service to update it, so is this still possible?

Hi @PeterD

You're correct: the current McAfee installation is not compatible with Sierra at the current time.
For more info on Sierra you can also check out the post below:

Hope this helps you out!

You might need to re-install it.

Hi.  I deleted my mcafee on sierra because it seemed to not enable all detection, and was planning a fresh install.   I have the same question as someone above - can someone tell me where do we find mcafee download for reinstall - it is absent on all rmit resources as far as I can see.  I would just like to try to see it it works because I don't like having no protection, even on a mac.  Thanks.
