    I keep getting an error at start up SecurityHealthSystray \\?\C:\windows\system32\securityHealth\1.0.2303.28002\securityHealthSSO.dll.

    Download the fresh copy of SecurityHealthSSO.dll from my OneDrive link.

    The file version and hash info are given below:

    Copy the above file to a folder named "C:\Files\"

    Open an admin Command Prompt and run:

    • takeown /f c:\windows\system32\securityHealth\1.0.2303.28002-0\SecurityHealthSSO.dll /a
    • ICACLS c:\windows\system32\securityHealth\1.0.2303.28002-0\SecurityHealthSSO.dll /grant administrators:F
    • copy C:\Files\SecurityHealthSSO.dll c:\windows\system32\securityHealth\1.0.2303.28002-0\
    (Press Y when prompted to overwrite the file)

    C:\Windows\System32\SecurityHealth is empty

    Windows Security UI Won't Open, is empty in settings, and Windows Security Service won't start.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I have performed all of the steps from that guide and rebooted, and the issue persists.
    The C:\Windows\System32\SecurityHealth folder was already present.
