After the Update for Microsoft Defender Antivirus antimalware platform - KB5007651 (Version 1.0.2302.21002), Windows Security now opens up slower when I click on the icon while I have Firefox open with other tabs. It also sometimes opens with blank button icons on Security at a glance. Is there any way to reinstall or remove update KB5007651(Version 1.0.2302.21002)? Is anyone else having this problem?

I'm on Windows 11 Home 22H2 version 22621.1413

Same problem here, and reported by others. The KB5007651 update breaks the Security app. Disabling the TPM in BIOS will fix it.
