How do you reinstall Safari when it is not working properly? I cannot find Safari in App Store so when I delete it how do I get to reinstall it? Every time I go to exit it says that Safari is not responding.
MacBook Air (2020 or later)
The App Store use to have The App there that you could install without having to reinstall the whole operating system. What happened to the App?

Not working how?
Hold the Shift key when you (re)launch Safari is a bit of a 'safeboot' for the app —this keeps a problem window/tab from opening on launch.
You should always have more than one browser on your machine since this is how you conveniently reach out to the Internet. If one browser fails you will have a backup.
Re-installing the macOS on top of your existing macOS is how you refresh the baked in apps.

safari is built in to macOS. you cannot delete it. and to reinstall it requires you to reinstall macOS.
please see this apple support article: How to reinstall macOS - Apple Support
With Monterey Safari is part of the system and can't be deleted. If you're having problems with Safari they the following in order as needed:
1 - launch Safari with the Shift key held down.
2 - clear out the History: History menu ➙ Clear History ➙ All History
3 - boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following;
• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed
• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)
• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically
• Disables user-installed fonts
• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

i'm guessing that in mojave and before, you were able to install safari on it's own. but as of catalina, macOS is a "sealed" system that can't be modified by anyone but apple. what "used to be" is no guarantee that it will continue on subsequent macOSes.
How does opening in Safe Mode help with the App Safari?
