The mcuimgr.exe process is an executable program file implemented into McAfee software products as a component of the McAfee Security Center application, which is a Windows program built into these McAfee security tools. The mcuimgr.exe process is specifically deployed as an EXE resource file of the McAfee User Interface Manager module, which is an applet integrated into the McAfee Security Center software. The mcuimgr.exe process works with the other executable program files, certain SYS driver utilities, some DLL (Dynamic Link Library) modules, specific background process tiems and various component files and libraries of the McAfee Security Center program and these McAfee software products, in order to implement the functionalities embedded in these McAfee applications into the Windows-based system. This means the mcuimgr.exe file is packaged into the installer distributions of these McAfee software products, which also means the mcuimgr.exe process is unloaded unto the system alongside various McAfee application components upon the installation of these McAfee system security tools.
