Can you add an exception for that folder within Mcafee? That'll stop it scanning files in that location.

Personally I hate Mcafee, just throwing that in there. It's worth checking what files it's having a problem with and throwing them on www.virustotal.com to see if any others flag them as malicious.

Is it even worth using Gamefirst? A quick look shows it prioritises network traffic based on your settings. But from experience I always found that to cause issues instead of helping. Router side QoS works a lot better.

+1 to getting rid of McAfee, if using W10 the inbuilt one is fine, or if you prefer a 3rd party option the stickied AV thread has a lot of suggestions.

Uninstall Mcafee and stop using gamefirst, no need to use it in this day and age.
