Show Deleted Messages menu cannot be uninstalled. If you delete a message, the menu will reappear. Remember that Recently Deleted messages are a feature in iOS 16. Also remember that if you delete messages from Recently Deleted, or leave them for 30-40 days, so that they are automatically deleted, they cannot be restored.
