thunderbird fails to register outlook email
I have a dual boot laptop. It came with Win 11 installed and I added a new ssd with an old Win 10 system, which had Thunderbird configured. The win 10 system worked fine with outlook and I saw and verified the password. I upgraded the Win 10 to Win 11 and it all continued to work fine. I again checked the password stored in Thunderbird. When I tried to set up the same account in Thunderbird on the "as installed" Win 11, it fails to pass authentication. I have no idea why since I have checked the password in the "old" system and used it in the new. I have tried using the menu option "New Account" and the submenu option for "+ New Account" within the "Account Settings" menu item. Both seem to take me to the same automatic process - which is what is failing. I can't see what, if anything, I'm doing wrong. Any help much appreciated. The laptop is a MSI Katana AI B8VE (using AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS.

At the top right of the Thunderbird window, click the menu button ≡ > Settings > General > Account Hub Uncheck the box 'Create accounts in the new Account Hub'.

Many thanks. It stopped the automatic screens seen previously and immediately found the relevant parameters and set up the account.
