"Install macOS Monterey" is, as the name implies, the installer for er... Monterey.


Perhaps the installer is still there in the Applications folder, or perhaps it just appears in Launchpad but has been removed already.


Start by verifying which OS you are currently running.


Go to the Apple menu and choose About this Mac to confirm if you are running Monterey.


Perhaps you downloaded the installer but did not actually install.


If you are already in Monterey, you can delete the installer. If not, and if you want, you can run it to upgrade to Monterey.
