BSOD Critical_Process_Died after enabling Windows Defender Firewall

Server 2019 1809 17763.914 running Remote Desktop Services and all updates are applied.

On reboot, the Windows Defender Firewall is stopped (even though it is set to automatically start) and when I manually start the service (via any command line, windows services, server manager, defender gui etc.) it BSOD with the error of "Critical Processes Stopped"

Any external servers are unable to access IIS sites, but can access them via localhost.

Booting in safe mode (networking) and starting the firewall service is also unsuccessful.

Any ideas on where to look to get the firewall functional again?
