Has anyone seen this behavior with Windows Defender?

Recently whenever I start up my PC I always get the Windows Defender pop up messages asking me to allow traffic, pops up for Plex, iTunes, Chrome, IE Edge etc....once I click I allow it works fine until I reboot my PC and then it starts the pop ups again. I tried turning defender completely off but within about 10 seconds it turns itself back on again. It's very irritating!

I've run an anti virus and a malware scan and there doesn't appear to be anything nefarious going on.
 
Yes I have both Tor Guard and Tunnel Bear, but both are off and not running.

Here's what pop's up for every app that's trying to access the network every time the PC starts -

 
Same here with Chrome. Not even after every machine reboot, just closing and reopening Chrome is enough for it to pop back up.

Started after recent windows updates, not sure which one.
