But my question is when im installing 8.8 with the default patch it looks like windows 2009 look its old look of scan. But 8.7i looks new one.

Hi A.,
"jheysen" have right about this, 8.8 is a new product, so there is no possibility to "only" update v.8.7 to the latest version.
Here you have McAfee's official page with detailed information about Patches, Hot-fixes, etc.: https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB51560
I download 8.8 from some site i dont know the exact site and im not using any grant number to download it. But my question is when im installing 8.8 with the default patch it looks like windows 2009 look its old look of scan. But 8.7i looks new one.

If you want to check versions (antivirus & patch), simply go to McAfee's icon (near the clock), make a right click and choose "About" option... if you want to be sure, provide us screenshot and We'll help you with identification.
After that We'll also help you to install appropriate Patch. ;)
You need this Patch for Windows 10 or ??
cya later,
Samker
P.S.
Because of SCforum's TOU: http://scforum.info/terms.html it's not allowed to post/share illegal downloads... because of that, your link from previous post is removed.

Oh ok S I am usig windows 7 and im installed mcafee virus scan enterprise v8.7i with patch 4. I would like to move on to v8.8 when i click update now virus definitions only updated. It shows error virus scan enterprise reach end of life so version can't update. And few thread back i read using hotfix and latest patch 5 we can update to 8.8. I have the hotfix and patch 5 but i dont have password of patch 5 i already liked in the facebook.

Ok, I understand now... ;)
First uninstall version 8.7 from your PC (through Control Panel), restart PC and after that install version 8.8 (during installation, choose "perpetual" license) and again restart... after that apply Patch 5.
You'll get pass. for Patch 5 ( v8.8 ) via PM in the next few minutes.
After that, finally, check is everything Ok via "About" button (you have instructions how to do that, above). If you want to be sure, that everything is Ok, provide us screenshot.
cya later,
S.

Remember that the patch 5 for 8.8 requires patch level 1 as a minimum

Try making the window bigger. If that doesn't work, well, you'll have to wait until it has finished.
(probably it'll appear when VSE has calculated how much work it has to do)

Are you talking about the green status bar that shows the progress of the scan?
If so then I can tell you that it is gone what i can see. I have checked up this on several Windows 7 computers its all the same.
I have also try to check this in some old Windows 2003 Server and that dose not either get any status bar.
Just so you know. I did this test for the status bar just under around 5 - 10 minutes. So if it appear later on the scanning I cant tell. But when I stopped the scanning it appeared under a few sec befor the windows closed.
Regarding the Areo look I cant tell way you get the old look but some thing to check is if you nave some problem with the Areo. Try to check if their is some new Video card devise driver.
I have non problem with the Areo at my Windows 7 computers.
Do also note that VSE 8.8 patch 5 and earlier is not supported and working in in the new Windows 10. The mini requirement is patch 6 that is schedule in 26 August 2015.
