Hey there! I’ve seen a few people run into this issue where the Windows Security settings just show a blank page. Here are a few things you can try to fix it:
1. Update Windows
Go to Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates and make sure everything is up to date. Sometimes updates patch bugs in the Windows Security app.
2. Re-register Windows Security App
Open PowerShell as Administrator and run the following command to reset the Windows Security app:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackage
After running it, restart your PC and see if the issue is resolved.
3. Check for Corrupted System Files
Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run these two commands one after another:
sfc /scannow
Then:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Once both are done, restart your PC.
These steps usually fix the blank screen issue. Hope this helps!
appreciate the suggestions. i had already all of those before posting :)
on one of my win 11 machines similar issue. screen doesnt go blank. just get a message like "not available'
tried the powershell cmd and ran it wo error but didn't help.correction: "This app can't open".
- Try this PowerShell command, see if this helps:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackageinstalled MS Powershell 7-64, ran it with the argument you suggested.
