Thanks! I was going to do a restore back to before the windows updates and do them one at a time instead of the bulk of all 11 updated I did and see what caused it then check avast.

It was Avast! The combination of the Home Network Security (what bleeding good is an antivirus program with home network security that stops a non threatening program like Calibre from doing what it does best!) and the SecureLine VPN.

I feel so out of touch these days... in the bad old days of the 80s and early 90s I did network admin and yet today find the programs for antivirus etc make me feel so out of control of my own system

Thanks to your post I saved hours of testing. I really prefer the Goodreads link being included.
