Question

How do I forget a device using the McAfee® SHI app?

Answer

The Forget the device option removes the device from the device list and removes all applied Parental Controls or blocked rules. The device is not removed from the home network and does not lose Internet connectivity. When the removed device goes offline and comes back online, the device will be re-added to the device list. The device will be treated as a new device found and the admin can apply new rules. The Forget this device option is used for guest devices. This document describes how to Forget this device.
