security message immediately pops up

Problem started straight after I upgraded to LibreOffice 7.4.2 via PatchMyPC.
Every time I open a Writer doc or Calc Spreadsheet I get a Windows Security
Virus & Threat Protection message pop up which states: Unauthorised changes
blocked. Controlled folder access blocked soffice.bin from making changes.
I have run a full Windows Defender security scan on my hard disc. No threats
were detected.
I am very security conscious and do not want to make changes to my Windows 10
security settings.
In simple language (I am not a techie!) what can I do to solve this problem??
Have the files I have opened with LibreOffice 7.4.2 been infected?
Please help.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.click on document or calc file or LibreOffice 7.4.2 icon

Actual Results:
File opens, then a couple of seconds later Windows security message pops up but
quickly disappears and am able to edit file.
Expected Results:
Not to get the security message.
Reproducible: Always
