What Happens After You Cancel McAfee?
After cancelling McAfee auto-renewal, your subscription remains active until the end of your current billing period. You will continue to receive full virus protection until that date. After expiry, McAfee will stop updating virus definitions and your device will become vulnerable — so make sure you have an alternative security solution in place.
