macOS 15 and later: Keychain Access icon removed from Utilities

Tried to renew a certificate, but the Keychain Access icon is gone?

macOS Sequoia 15 and later changed how you launch it.

The underlying data is probably the same, but the Passwords app is a simplified interface for usability.

How to access it

Hit Command + Space to open Spotlight and type “key”—the icon will show up.

Apple’s official docs cover this too.
