    Hello,

    What version of SEP 11.x are you using??

    Could you check on all group policies, Tamper protection is checked and Locked.

    To check the same follow:

    1. Log in SEPM
    2. Click on Clients
    3. Highlight
    4. Click on Policies TAB on the Right hand side.
    5. Click on General Settings.
    6. Click on Tamper Protection Tab
    7. Make sure the Tamper protection is Checked and Locked.
    8. Check all the Groups and Subgroups.

    When anything like this happens, you get to know on the SEPM home screen like Autoprotect -Off, Antivirus Engine off and so on..

    Yes, Faster way to resolve the issue is to Uninstall them and Reinstall the same.
