Cannot enable Windows Defender virus protection
Windows 10 Pro,
Version 1709
OS Build 16299.522
I cannot enable "Virus and Threat Protection" in the Windows Defender:
What I see in the Defender window:
When I press "Restart now" I get error "Turn on Controlled folder access to enable or edit protection". Of course, I cannot enable it.
The usual way to enable the feature works through Windows Defender, which is currently unavailable to me - https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/113380-enable-disable-controlled-folder-access-windows-10-a.html
I also cannot enable it via PowerShell:
PS C:WINDOWSsystem32> Set-MpPreference -EnableControlledFolderAccess Enabled
Set-MpPreference : Operation failed with the following error: 0x800106ba. Operation: Set-MpPreference. Target: EnableCo
ntrolledFolderAccess.
At line:1 char:1
+ Set-MpPreference -EnableControlledFolderAccess Enabled
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (MSFT_MpPreference:rootMicrosoft...FT_MpPreference) [Set-MpPreference],
CimException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : HRESULT 0x800106ba,Set-MpPreference
And via Local Group Policy.
When I open Local Group Policy I get error "Resource '$(string.AllowEncryptionOracle)' referenced in attribute displayName could not be found." (and three more similar errors) :
After this I navigate to the necessary location:
Computer ConfigurationAdministrative TemplatesWindows ComponentsWindows Defender AntivirusWindows Defender Exploit GuardControlled folder access
enable the feature here, but it does no effect.
The way four via registry from the instruction also doesn't work.

You are using an extremely out of date build of Windows 10 from June 22nd 2018. At this due to your inability to launch the local group policy editor and Windows Defender be non-functional and the fact you have not received a single Windows Update in 7 months. I would either perform a Reset or potentially upgrade to 1803 to fix the corruption problems
