Perhaps I am being a bit paranoid, but I was recently scammed by a 3rd party resulting in my having to have Webroot reinstalled. I just noticed that in the list of hidden icons, there is AnyDesk which is what the scammer had used. If this is a program that normally comes with Windows 11, alright. If not, how on earth do I remove it? I don't fancy anyone having access to my computer without my knowledge.
Many thanks to all!

Hello
It doesn’t belong to Windows so just uninstall it: https://anydesk.com/en
Also as being a Webroot License user you can have Webroot do a free security check by Submitting a Support ticket as a scan log is uploaded for them to look at and if there are issues they can help you remove any other programs that are of concern.
Webroot Support:
Submit a ticket 24/7/365
Call 1-866-612-4227 during the week Mon - Fri 7 AM to 5:30 PM (MST)
Note: When submitting a Support Ticket, Please wait for a response from Support. Putting in another Support Ticket on this problem before Support responses will put your first Support Ticket at the end of the queue.
Thanks,
