If you have the same layer in your legend twice, you cannot remove one without removing the other. R click > Remove removes both instances even if only one is selected . I'm sure this is supposed to be a "feature" but I propose removing only the entry clicked so I don't have to recreate the formatting of the entry or do some other workaround like adding another legend and moving it there.

It's 01/02/2025 today, just upgraded to 3.4 from 3.2 after having same issue, even after multiple re-starts the issue remains.  Other threads/posts have ERSI support persons saying the bug was fixed in 3.3 & 3.4, but clearly it remains.  This is really disappointing, these types of persistent little bugs put a stain on ESRI given all its bells & whistles & bravado.  They already know about the bug, so no need really to re-report it, right?  @ESRISupport , are there any new patches anticipated for this issue?

@AnneRuthstrom I'm so sorry this bug is still there for you. Unfortunately there were a couple of different bugs in this area that were addressed. While they all looked the same at a quick glance, they had different root causes that required different fixes. It may seem like there is no need to re-report it, but please do! If your case isn't fixed, then there is some other issue we don't know about. There are so many configurations of data and workflows, it's very possible you have a combination that wasn't addressed.
