Windows 10: The Windows Security Centre service can`t be started

I have been having an issue trying to get windows security up and running again. It broke after I downloaded Malwarebytes to remove unwanted files but since I uninstalled it, I am unable to restart the service. I can click on the application but it returns with a black window with the windows security title. I noticed in the services section for Windows Security Service it was all blank and disabled. Some steps I tried:sfc/ scannowDISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /RestorehealthDISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /StartComponentCleanupEditting the registry for wscvc start from 4 into 2 but couldn`t
