Hey everyone, I turned on Windows Security's LSA after I saw the notification about it and after rebooting It still shows the message that I need a reboot still.. It's getting annoying to see the app with the yellow icon on it telling me this..

I'm asking here to find out if anyone has found a fix for this obvious bug in windows 11 22h2.

Hmm the registry option shows a file for "RunAsPPLBoot" yet I don't see that in The regedit.exe myself under the location it states.. Should I create it? Any info how to do this?

Yes, it should be added. If you like, you can download and merge the REG file in that step to add it for you.

You are not alone in having that one missing. Several of us have reported that, see post #53 in the LSA tutorial.

Yes, add it. Without it you get that everlasting 'you need to reboot' message.

I just saw This post where Microsoft finally acknowledges this issue, which has apparently been going on since Jan 15, 2023. In the post, they say that LSA is ON, and that the warning is a false positive. They also include the registry mod to remove the warning, if desired.

It should be created if you turn on LSA.
