Which McAfee add-ons do you have? You might need to check both Plugins and Extensions to find all of them.

You can open the Add-ons page using either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons

Your "More System Details" shows one McAfee plugin that you could set to "Never Activate". However, I don't see a list of your extensions.

Do you have a McAfee security suite? It might have a setting for protecting your browsers that you can disable centrally. You might need to do this if the McAfee suite is set to keep an eye on your browsers and re-enable its add-ons.
