How do I find what version of McAfee I have installed?
Solution
Finding Your Current Version of McAfee in Windows
Windows 10
To determine which version of McAfee you are running, we need to navigate to the Apps and Features section of the Settings in Windows.
- Open the Start Menu
- Select Setttings from the list of applications
- Select Apps
- You will see a list of all the apps installed on your computer. Find McAfee on the list.
- You may have multiple McAfee programs listed. Look for "McAfee VirusScan" or "McAfee Endpoint Security".
- Select the entry in the list.
- A version number will be displayed below the name.
If you have a managed McAfee installation, then you can find your Agent version number by looking for McAfee Agent instead. Again, select it and look below the name to see the installed version number.
Windows 7
To determine which version of McAfee you are running, we need to navigate to the Programs and Features section of the Control Panel in Windows.
- Open the Start Menu
- Select the Control Panel
- Depending on your system, you might be directed to All Control Panel Items or just Control Panel
- If you are in All Control Panel Items, select Programs and Features
