    Could you give some additional info on the updates sources for security intelligence you setup in the GPO, and also how you manage general OS updates? (Windows Update? SCCM?)

    Security intelligence and AV engine will be updated from the source you choose in GPO,
    and AV platform updates will be retrieved as an OS update from Windows Update etc.

        Ok, so you are running the default sources.
        Can't remember what those are, so could you run "Get-MpPreference" in powershell and check the value of "SignatureFallbackOrder" is?

        Also, what happens if you try to run a manual update from the security center on one of the affected pcs? Do you get some sort of error code?
