I want to uninstall the McAfee software that came with my new Omen laptop and install Bitdefender. Can you tell me what steps I should take, and in what order?

I don't know what is Bitdefender but you have to use McAfee tool to remove McAfee (the bad news is it may come back uninvited)

 

          https://service.mcafee.com/?articleId=TS101331&page=shell&shell=article-view

 

After that, you can install your Bitdefender.

Thank you for quick and helpful reply. Where is McAfee program in Control Panel? All I can find in System and Maintenance or Security is McAfee Webadvisor and I think that's different / sub program.
