Removing McAfee LiveSafe Windows 11

I have an XPS 8950, and I want to remove McAfee LiveSafe and use Windows Defender and firewall. I intend to remove it using Windows 11 remove programs. Is there a better way? Has anyone had problems using this method? I assume that once it is removed, I will be able to start Windows Defender. I used this method to remove Norton from a Surface Go tablet with Windows 10 several years ago and had no problems, but I cannot recall the particulars of doing it. Thanks.
