<Note>
  If you plan to use the **McAfee Virus Removal Service**, your Windows PC must have a minimum of **4 GB of RAM** (not the standard 2 GB) to support the live technician session tools that run alongside McAfee during the removal process.
</Note>

<Tip>
  If your Windows PC is running low on the required 1.3 GB of free disk space, use the built-in **McAfee PC Optimizer** tool to clean up junk files, unnecessary temporary data, and browser cache before beginning the McAfee installation. This not only frees up space but can also improve overall system performance.
