How do I Temporarily Disable Mcafee to Restore Windows 7?

You shouldn't have to disable anything to use System Restore as McAfee doesn't block Windows processes unless of course they are infected.

However you can either disable or remove completely.

To disable VirusScan

Double-click the taskbar icon to open SecurityCenter

Click Virus and Spyware Protection

Click Real-Time Scanning

Turn off and tell it for how long you wish it to remain that way.

You can do the same for Personal Firewall under the Web and Email Protection drawer on the main screen.

To uninstall the product simply go to Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall a Program and remove it there and if necessary use the MCPR cleanup tool listed under Useful Links at the top of this page.

A reboot will be required to complete the process.

Removal tool for Windows 7...?

Use the MCPR tool, see this article: How to remove supported McAfee consumer products using the McAfee Consumer Products Removal tool (MCPR.exe).  This will remove all McAfee remnants from your computer.  (You must have Windows 7,  Vista, XP or 2000, SP4 to use this tool)

Valid for Consumer (Home) products only.

The FAQ's need to be updated, sorry about that.
