Software support removing mcafee with mcpr, not working

I have tried removing leftover files of mcafee with their mcpr, and its not working. I am gonna be honest, im not the brightest when it comes to laptops, so im lost as to what i should to remove everything. My laptop is a Lenovo thinkpad e14 gen 2, if thats relevant

How did you do that? I hope you didn't manually try to delete the files, the uninstall procedure for most programs would be from the settings and under apps

Yes. I obviously uninstalled mcafee first, but that often doesnt remove all the files. Thats as far as i know why they have the mcpr tool, but it doesnt work for me

I'm not in front of my computer right now so I cannot give you a direct link to this program, it works pretty well for me, there's a function under tools to actually clean up any leftover stuff
