Hello All,
Here are the steps I promised late yesterday on how to disable the backup service. Please try the steps and let me know if this work around is sufficent.
Steps to suspend McAfee Online Backup
Navigate to the System Tray ( to the left of the clock) at the lower right of the screen
Look for either the McAfee M icon or the Online Backup icon, ( Three arrows in a cirlce within a silver shield)
Clicking on the M icon
Double Click on the M icon
Navigate to and click the Data Protection and Backup Drawer top open it
Click on Online Backup link to open the Online backup status window
Now follow the steps in the section below
Clicking the Online Backup icon or Navigating the Online Backup windows
Click the Configure button to open the Configuration menu, This may take a moment to open
Click on the large Options Button at the top of the window (The button has Two Gears, one large and one small)
Click the Scheduling Tab within the Options section (Option Button background should be darker than the other buttons)
Note: On Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems you will need to click the "Change settings that are currenty unavailable"
navigate to and click the check box for "Temporarily suspend automatic and scheduled backups", lower left side of the window
Click the "Save" button on the Configuration menu
Click the "Hide" button on the Online backup status
I have just updated the steps as I had used some acronyms in the instructions. I do appoligize, it is a bad habbit. If further edits are needed please let me know. identify the section that needs to be updated and I can review the steps again.
