    Has anyone learned how to fix this issue? I don't have any recommendations but this yield sign never goes away.

    Had same problem with new Laptop and Windows 11 - Security icon in taskbar shows "action needed". Here is what I did to resolve this as could not find what "action" was needed.

    Went into Windows Security

    Then App and Browser Control

    Change Potentially Unwanted App Blocking to ON

    Note: Mine was already set to ON - so I switched it to Off - let windows make system change - then went back and switched it to ON

    Did not reboot or anything

    Windows security icon now shows "no action needed".

    GoodLuck
