No, I'm saying that corporate support is out of scope. If you are on a corporate network and they have installed software and limited what you can do with it then that is between you and them. If you are a part of the sysadmin community where you work then Server Fault might be where you need to go. The question you linked is a generic McAfee question and if that worked then yours should be closed as a duplicate, if it does not then it reinforces that you need to speak to your network administrator. If you have access to gpedit, NAS, and so on on your own computer then it could be on topic.

| Nov 2, 2020 at 9:49 | comment | added | thedrs | also what is the reason superuser does not allow asking about network software ? sysadmins typically work with network software, why not allow collaboration on knowledge of network software ? | |
| Nov 2, 2020 at 9:46 | comment | added | thedrs | So you are saying any questions regarding software installed on networks are not allowed on super user ? NAS/DNS/AV/wikis/global policy configs on win... all these are out of scope for super user ? so what stackexchange community includes these ? so why don't you close: superuser.com/questions/67265/how-to-disable-a-mcafee-service/… | |
| Nov 1, 2020 at 10:54 | comment | added | Mokubai Mod | I closed it because I could see you are using Endpoint Security which (as far as i know) is a network administrated McAfee solution and even as as "administrator" on your machine you are bound by the rules of you network admin and the rules that they enforce. Per our on topic page we do not allow questions about "issues specific to corporate IT support and networks" and as a result I closed it because of that. If you had told me that this is not a problem with a software installed to protect your corporation then it could have been reopened. | |
