Method to remove McAfee antivirus file system filter driver

To uninstall the agent, I will run the command FrmInst.exe /forceuninstall (FrmInst.exe will be under \Program files\McAfee\Common framework).

After uninstalling VSE, once you reboot the machine then filter drivers should be removed. If not then under Drivers folder (\Windows\System32\Drivers), there will be couple of Mfe file (for example: mfehidk.sys etc). Rename these Mfe*.sys file, reboot the machine. Filter driver files will be removed.

WAN Miniport (IP) - McAfee NDIS Intermediate Filter Miniport

I have a solution to remove the NDIS driver.

Once removed from Device manager and the system is rebooted I found that any network issues found were fixed.

In regedit navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11­CE-B FC1-08002BE10318}

Do a search in regedit from this point for McAfee NDIS Intermediate driver

In the item view the Characteristics value.

Change Characteristics with the value of 0x00000029(41) to 0x00000001(1)

Go back into Device Manager and remove the NDIS Driver as normal. Reboot the system.

Please do the above at your own risk.

Good luck
