I used to have McAfee SafeKey on Windows 10 and this was disabled by Mozilla Firefox as of 31 December 2015. It was recommended that I install Intel TrueKey (or use Internet Explorer as my browser!! which I do not wish to do) which I purchased (even though I had paid for 12mths of McAfee SafeKey last June) and it worked until 3st December and then stopped. According to Intel it will be upgraded some time!! It has worked off and on since but now will not automatically insert my passwords when I log on to a website which I have used before so I have to key in all login details to every site I use. Has anyone else had this difficulty and how do I get it to work? I feel I have wasted money purchasing this TrueKey when I now have to key in all login details (defeats the object of purchasing it.)
