Win10: WebUI does not show any peers

Bug

Description:

• What you were doing when you experienced the bug?
  After running ipfs init then ipfs swarm peers I saw a numerous amount of peers listed
  After running ipfs daemon then navigating to the WebUI, the Connections tab showed 0 peers connected
• Any error messages you saw, where you saw them, and what you believe may have caused them (if you have any ideas).
  I have experienced error messages in the CLI window that is being used to run the daemon as such:
  "�[0;37m14:30:29.579 �[31mERROR �[0;34m bitswap: �[0mError writing block to datastore: Access is denied. �[0;37mbitswap.go:317�[0m"
  I believe these errors may have something to do with the issue because when I re run the daemon and DO NOT close the webui, some of the peers do show up - however, if I navigate to a different tab, then back to the connections tab, there are 0 peers again and I experience more errors. I cannot resolve the issue unless I stay on the connections tab and re run the daemon.

This does not affect much functionality other than usability - I'm still able to access files I have added with ipfs over an internet connection - this is more of a UI bug IMHO

The errors in your second bullet point are likely a duplicate of /issues/3971.

For the WebUI not showing any connections, how long are you waiting on the page to see if it changes? It's a pretty intensive page that takes a while to show something other than 0 peers on my slow laptop.
