All McAfee products SummaryMcAfee provides the MER tool to help with troubleshooting issues with McAfee products. The MER tool collects a variety of information from the computer on which it is running, including event logs, registry information, running processes, and so on.
If the MER tool fails to run successfully on a Windows computer, you can still gather basic information by following the procedure described in this article.
Solution
Send the system information file to McAfee Technical Support for review. This file can be large, so use a file compression tool such as WinZip to compress it before sending it to McAfee.
