Firewall blocked an unblocked program

I opened an app I use often.
Up popped a Windows Security Alert saying Windows Firewall had blocked some
features of this program.
It also says at the foot of the dialogue "This program has already been
blocked or unblocked for a different network location"

Assuming that the app has not changed.....
Why block the unblocked app?
Only thing I know to have changed is recent Windows Updates and me
installing Netlimiter 2 Monitor.

Also, what is this "different network location"?
