Unable to move Calendar to New Window

Prior to updating Thunderbird, I was able to right- click on the Calendar tab and choose "Move to New Window" to put the calendar in a new window. This allowed me to use ALT-Tab to quickly switch between open windows.

I can not put the calendar in a new window since the update to Thunderbird 91.2.1 (and the previous update).

I have restarted Thunderbird. I have re-booted the computer. No change.

OS is Win 8.1

Any ideas? Thank you!

I see the same thing, so this is a regression from 78, where it works.

As a workaround, right-click an account in the Folder Pane, Open in New Window, then open the Calendar tab in the new window.
