I hear that we need to use the McAfee removal tool to get rid of pre-installed McAfee on laptops. Can someone help me to find a safe source ? Thanks.

install windows fresh to get rid of other hp crapware before then installing linux for dual boot...

Thanks. That is the first thing I tried to do. Sadly, Ubuntu 20.04 distro are having serious trouble with this hardware. GUI is a mess, no WiFi, I do not know what else. This is the condition when I tried the Live session. Then I went ahead and installed 20.04 as dual boot. It was a disaster. 20.04 won't work at all. Now I have Grub for no reason and it increases the boot time.

Now I am trying to live with what I got and wait for 22.04 or 21.10. I am in 2 minds about screen bleeding too. Is that a really bad thing ? Do people request a replacement for such issues ?

For now, I will get rid of McAfee. It is a 1-month trial anyway.


Successfully removed McAfee :thumbsup
