Why did Safari disappear from my MacBook Air dock?

Today, for no reason the Safari icon was missing from my MacBook Air dock.


I managed to get it back by searching in Spotlight and then dragging Safari back into the dock.


My question is, why did the Safari icon disappear in the first place? Is this a known fault or is it possible that I have been infected with a virus?


Thank you guys.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.0

Definitely not a "virus" problem.


There is really no way of determining why it disappeared. Most likely just an inadvertent removal. Your corrective steps were appropriate.
