Optional installs include VPN, System Speedup, a password manager, browser extensions, and a hardened browser. In the case that you've downloaded the Free Suite (not recomended), you can uninstall the above mentioned additional downloads with Avira's Connect app or any uninstaller utility software.

McAfee was founded in 1987, and became famous for being the first antivirus software. John McAfee, the original creator, resigned from McAfee in 1994. The company was purchased by Intel in 2011 and renamed Intel Security. TPG Capital bought a majority share of the company in 2017.
