Google Calendar doesn't stay signed in after latest TB update

I have TB 68.2.1. It is using my Google calendar. Previously, I never needed to sign in to Google - it stayed signed in. Ever since the update to 68, whenever I open calendar, it asks me to sign in to Google. Where do I set this so it keeps the sign-in information and does it automatically? Thanks!

Thanks so much! That worked.

For others like me who may not know how to find the default user agent, read the top paragraph here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Thunderbird/Thunderbird_Configuration_Files

Here is what worked for me:

Go to Tools->Options menu, select "Advanced" icon, select "General" tab, click "Config Editor" button,click "I accept the risk!", search for "general.useragent.compatMode.firefox" if it shows "false" double click to change to "true", enter your credentials one LAST time when it prompts. The repeating issue stopped for me. No idea why this works??

I would like to thank Yew Kay Yan for this process! It was driving me crazy having to enter Google Credentials Over and Over and Over...
