Plus signs between Search Terms (Google)

[Akamizu]

Totally new to this. 

Every time I search in the address bar on Chrome, it makes my searches with + signs in replace of spaces. For example, "hello hi" changes to "hello+hi".

I saw someone else had this same issue, they said it was their firewall. I am not even sure where to look. I checked chrome settings and I changed some of malwarebytes settings.  I tried it on bing and on Microsoft Edge, neither of them do this as well.
Is this a Chrome browser issue or a firewall issue?

That is normal on any Google search.

Ah! Sorry I should have clarified. It isn't in the address bar it self. It is when I search with the address bar. It shows up as hello+hi in the search bar.
