BAT files to stop/start McAfee Services

by  campyracr  Posted    (Edited  )
For applications or system changes that would be slowed by McAfee AV software you can use two simple batch files. Simply copy the green text and save as [color red]stop/start_[/color]avservices.bat files where they can be accessed easily.

The batch files will alternately stop and then start the McAfee AV services in W2K or XP. [color purple]While the actual stop/start service takes the same ammount of time, several steps are saved by running the bat file over the same task via the "Manage" utility.[/color]

To Stop the services run the "[color blue]stopAVservices.bat[/color]"
[color green]net stop "McAfee Framework Service"

net stop "Network Associates McShield"

net stop "Network Associates Task Manager"[/color]


To Stop the services run the "[color blue]startAVservices.bat[/color]"
[color green]net start "McAfee Framework Service"

net start "Network Associates McShield"

net start "Network Associates Task Manager"[/color]
