Windows Update (KB5063878) does not appear in the uninstall list

Good afternoon,

This update appears to be causing several SSDs to fail. I have it installed and, for safety reasons, I'd like to uninstall it.

The problem is that it doesn't appear in my Uninstall Updates list. I've seen several people with it listed and managed to uninstall it. Is there a tool or fix for this issue of it not appearing in the uninstall list?

 

 

Many Tks

    do you think resetting the PC back to its original system during the purchase can resolve the issue with KB5053878?

    I'm having the same issue. How do I uninstall the update if it doesn't show up on the list?

    Some updates, particularly certain cumulative or feature updates, are installed as "reserved" or system updates that don't show up in the usual list. It could also be an update that was installed via Windows Update for Business, WSUS, or Service Stack updates, which sometimes are not listed normally.

      But there are people who see this update on the list to uninstall and not for me
