After a talk with support this fixed it for me, I hope it helps others.

 

Hi Nick

 

Our Support Team have come back with the following response:

 

I've looked into this and it looks like admins control if users get notifications from ATP using group policy. It looks like many admins actually choose to suppress these notifications as can be seen in the Microsoft doc below:

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/configure-notifications-microsoft-defender-antivirus#configure-standard-notifications-on-endpoints

 

Your customer should just need to use the guide above to make sure that "Suppress all notifications" is set to disabled.

    Yes, our workplace administrators have done a great job. They have deactivated the notifications.

     

    First check:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Policies \ Microsoft \ Windows Defender \ ux configuration

    Notification_Suppress
