How to recover or reset your McAfee account password?

by James watson James

No one can deny from the fact that the number of viruses as well as cyber threats is growing day by day. These viruses attack your device by entering through an email attachment, a website you browse, or the software or the application you download from the web. Even some of the viruses keep a hidden eye when you access your banking information online. The viruses or the scams steal this information and can also make transactions from your account to theirs.

In short, a single security lack may lead to loss of millions. To meet this growing requirement of online security, McAfee has come to the rescue. McAfee antivirus range provides advanced protection against all sorts of viruses. It also covers you up from the most recent fraud or virus, Ransomware. You can buy the one as per the requirement of our home or business PC.

Once purchased, you have to download, install and then activate your McAfee subscription by creating your account at McAfee.com/Activate. The purpose of creating a McAfee account doesn’t ends here! You can also manage your subscriptions, view your subscription date, view the days left for subscription and do a lot more stuff. While creating a McAfee account, make sure the password you set is highly secure. It should be a combination of letters, numbers and special character.

At any point of time, if you are unable to access your McAfee account as you have forgotten its password then you can easily recover it. If it ever happens, you will see a message “the username and the password details doesn’t match”, which means either the password or the username or email ID is wrong. To recover your McAfee My Account password, do the following:

Verify the registered email address

In the first case, verify the email address you have entered to login is correct. To check the same, open your installed McAfee product, visit Account section or Your Subscription. You will find the complete subscription details along with your registered email address. Use that email address to sign in to your McAfee account.

  Reset your McAfee password

To reset your password, visit McAfee.com/Activate

        - Hover your mouse over My Account and Hit My Account

       - Just below the Log In button, you will see “Forgot Your Password”?

       - Enter the registered email ID and Click Send email

       - An email (Subject- Reset your McAfee password) with the password reset link     will be sent to you

          -  Follow the instructions given on the link to reset the password

For any reason, if you are still unable to reset it, contact McAfee customer support team and get an instant help on this.
