I've just been on Apply support chat about this. Apparently it's a known issue and Apple are addressing it. However, I did the following which worked for me:
1 Open Launchpad.
2 Click on Install macOS Monterey. Nothing will happen.
3 Open Launchpad again. The Install macOS Monterey icon should show a question mark over it, indicating that the app could not be found.
4 Hold the Option key and click the X button that appears above Install macOS Monterey, to remove this app from Launchpad.

You're welcome, Unless the file is located on your drive that should have fixed it. It rebuilds the Launchpad database. But, P.Phillips knows how to remove it.
Wow. That's worked for me too. Thank you!!!
Click it once, nothing will happen. Than there is a questionmark over the icon in launchpad. Hold the option-key and there is a little X above the installer and you can delete it.
Same issue here! High Sierra in my case ...
Getting the OS installer to the trash is simple. Once there, the trash can't be emptied. That is the problem.
This blog post solved it for me!https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/336565/cant-remove-install-macos-high-sierra-app
is there any other way to delete the Monterey OS installer? I cant locate it anywhere on my mac BUT it has consumed 23 GB on my mac and I have 172.9MB space left.
This is my problem too
