Windows 10: How to install Windows Defender

Hello there, I need to install Windows Defender and the whole Security Center to my system once again.
Is there a way to do it, without system reset?
Before you ask, it isn't just the matter of being disabled, stopped service, registry error or group policy setting (checked and tried to repair those), also SFC or DISM check don't help.


I know that normally it shouldn't be possible to uninstall such a thing (being part of the core system) however it seems that some malicious app or error managed to do it, I took care of any potential malware thru other AV, repaired parts of system using SFC and DISM, right know everything should be fine, only the Windows Defender seems to be missing.


Thank you for your answers
