Hi,
I am using the latest version of Windows 11 and I have found it out that the App & Browser Control is missing in the Windows Security. Although it is shown in settings but in the app its completely missing after the update. When I clicked it there is no response for it. Kindly check it in your system too and help me out. I am on my Windows 11 Beta version.

I recently did a clean Win 11 home 21H2 build 22000.856 install, and everything went well except for the windows security "action needed" notification. When I opened Win Security, nothing needed attention; however, I noticed the App and Browser Control section was missing. I typed in "App" in the Windows start menu, and the "App and Browser Control" section in system settings popped up. I clicked on it and turned on the "Reputation-based protection," and the "action needed" warning disappeared.
Thank for the describing the steps 😊
I have totally the same 💯
Now wondering - if Microsoft fix it and when? 😁

Hello Kevin,
I am aware of all those things and I have done it. Its a bug which needs to be reported. Thankyou.
This worked liked a charm, and a much better solution than going around deleting system files. Such a simple and obvious fix it just goes to show we over think things sometimes. Hopefully MS gets that section back to being displayed in the dashboard soon. What's ridiculous is this was being reported in developer and beta builds before it became an issue for stable, so that just goes to show they either don't listen or don't care.
for what its worth, i have the same issue and so do a few others on elevenforums. I've tried an in place upgrade as well with no luck whatsoever.
