I think this was caused by me being logged into tailscale and then joining a new domain, then converting the user profile to the new domain. Its logged in unattended on some user that doesnt exist anymore.

I went into all the %localappdata% folders and removed the tailscale folders. How is this happening!

Tailscale should let the uninstall option remove user settings.
It might cause issues if a user is not around anymore and there isn’t a proper way to remove the user.

Remove:
C:\ProgramData\Tailscale
C:\Users%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Tailscale
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Tailscale
And reinstall tailscale.

Yes, uninstall option with “Remove users data” should added.
