I found an additional application called "ms-resource:Displayname" in the list of applications on my start menu and I couldn't remove it

User's image

I go into the App settings through its right-click menu and see that the application is "SecHealthUI"User's image

No exceptions to Windows Security's functionality

Attempted to reset the application using Get-AppxPackage method, it didn't work

I want to know how to delete it.

Tried to contact customer service but customer service didn't answer calls during work hours

My Windows version is Windows 11 Enterprise Insider Preview 22H2 23493.1000

    From what you explained, it seems to be a bug, so I advise you to open the Feedback Hub app and report this issue as bug and submit image and other relevant information which might help to reproduce the problem.

    I believe this is a bug, try open the Command prompt as administrator and type the following command:

    sfc /scannow

    Press enter and let it runs and check the result.

    Open start and search for feedback and open the Feedback Hub app and report this issue.

    Just go here:

    C:\Users[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

    Nuke or add the shortcuts and it'll disappear from your Start/App menu list. Its still installed and you'll be able to find it via Search.
