Windows 10: Windows Defender apparently not installed on PC

I recently purchased a pre-built PC which with winver shows Version 1809 - OS Build 17763.1039.


Any time I try to open Windows Defender, it shows this error message: https://prnt.sc/r75jye lightshot


Searching for Windows Security in All Apps shows this list: https://prnt.sc/r75k50


I attempted going through regedit, changing owners and permissions, but nothing worked. The only thing I found that would hint at having Windows Defender was this tab: https://prnt.sc/r75kji


However, no information is seemingly stored in Security Center: https://prnt.sc/r75knb
