AHA! Ok, so it WAS the Security feature. For most apps I just tell it to run anyway and it works, but apparently this issue occurs if you copy the virtual environment files from one system to other. So if anyone else is having this issue I took a screenshot of the 'properties' tab that was suggested to me that I apply 'unblock' to the Python.Runtime.dll file and the Microsoft.Web.WebView2.dll files. the program opens perfectly after that!
