GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve wssplugin64.inf problems. To avoid data loss, you must be sure that you have backed-up all of your important documents, pictures, software installers, and other personal data before beginning the process. If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.
CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying wssplugin64.inf to your appropriate Windows system directory. McAfee, Inc. typically does not release McAfee Total Protection INF files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing wssplugin64.inf and all other INF files for McAfee Total Protection. An incorrectly installed INF file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
