I have tried using crsutil by booting into Recovery HD but the status remains disabled. I don't know why this happened. I don't have any anti-malware or anti-virus software installed, only use built-in gatekeeper. Someone has a solution for this?
MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.13
So, this was the solution:
Now it works!
P.D: Had to restart two times because in the first one a crossed out circle appeared on the screen; I thought for a moment my hard drive had failed!

Impatient, are we? This is a user-to-user help forum. No one has any requirement to answer a question in any allotted time, or at all.
When you enter Recovery Mode, I assume you're then launching Terminal to turn SIP back on? Are you entering:
csrutil enable
What does it say when you type that? It should say SIP has been enabled to confirm.
At least someone cares, thanks. But that was exactly what I did before and it told me it had been enabled. Yet, it continues to be disabled (when going to terminal and using crsutil status). Apparently I'm not the only one with this problem in High Sierra. Others can't disabled it (in my case I can't enable it).
I'll try one more time and if it doesn't work I'll use Etrecheck.
Good work, indeed. Sounds like some custom disabling/enabling had been done, so a straight enable command doesn't reset it.
If it happens again, try:
csrutil clear
This option erases the current SIP configuration and resets it to normal (on). Like status, this command can be run right from the desktop.
Any info?
Apple Communities is now so full of problems that no one attends yours... Unbelievable.
Now my computer is getting hotter and "Preparing for Time Machine backup" is taking for ever!
Maybe my computer model has SIP off by default because of it being from 2010? Still, it is strange because before it was turned on and now I can't turn it on even if I want to.
Good work. :)
SIP can't be enabled after reinstalling High Sierra
