Fake threat? [View all]

McAfee keeps popping up with 'alerts' that I've been infected, sometimes obliterates my whole screen. My MS security system says all is well. So how do I get the McAfee crap to go away???
Crazy making!
TIA
Edit to add: Restarted, it came back. Did the control F4, it came back. Installed and ran malwarebytes, it showed no viruses, still getting the McAfee pop ups. Powered off, waited a while, pop ups came back while the page was repopulating. Did the control F4 again, still getting the popups. Now the nighttime meds are kicking in, I'm not going to try anything further tonight; I just shut down and try again tomorrow. Thanks everyone!
