Make sure you have the following selected in your SCCM SCUP, for product categories:
System Center Endpoint Protection
Windows Defender
Q1 – Yes check out this configuration for Win10 you don’t need to separate client but you can check https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/core/clients/deploy/about-client-settings#endpoint-protection
Q2 – https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/protect/deploy-use/endpoint-antimalware-policies
To fix the error there are a few steps needed:
-Browse to the Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine folder on the client and delete the file: Registry.pol
-Then restart the “SMS Agent Host” service to enforce ConfigMgr download all policies again. Sometimes this is not enough and re-installation of the ConfigMgr client is needed.
