Free Sky Mcafee help

Hi, downloaded the free Sky Mcafee yesterday to my new HP laptop but can't find it anywhere. If I search my computer it comes up as a file but nothing happens when I click on it, it also showed a couple of alerts but I've had no pop ups or anything. Shouldn't it show up bottom right corner on the task bar? The HP has Norton preinstalled with a 3 month trial which it keeps telling me to fully activate. The Norton does show up on the task bar. Should I uninstall the Norton, is it safe to do so if I can't actually access McAfee at present?

    Step 1. Uninstall Norton
    Step 2. Don't instal Mcafee
    Step 3. Install Avast or AVG. (both free)
    1. Have you tried to Google the answer?
    2. If you were in the other person's shoes, how would you react?
    3. Do you want a quick answer or better understanding?
