Google Account Sign-In Popup
I recently transferred my Thunderbird account to a new PC and have been getting a pop-up to enter credentials for a google account every 10 minutes or so. After the pop-up is opened (sometimes in the background), no new mail will be fetched until the pop-up is closed, this is frustrating as I sometimes don't notice the pop-up so seems like I am not getting emails. The pop-up is for Google account, but my mail accounts is from MS Outlook, I don't use Thunderbird for any Gmail and I don't think this Thunderbird profile is associated in any way with my personal Google account.
This is a work computer, so not associated with my personal accounts. I dont want to put my personal Google login here and I don't know how to stop the pop-up.
The transfer was done by copying my profiles folder to the new PC, then installing Thunderbird and creating a new profile, and pointing to the profiles folder. I've had the same profiles folder for 10-15 years or more and not seen this before.

Is there an orphan Google Calendar or an address book linked to Google Contacts in that profile?

There is a similar ticket here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1513318
But as I am not using a Google account I don't think this will apply (I don't want to enter my Google credentials).
All incoming and outgoing emails are blocked when the pop-up is open and keeps popping up every 10 minutes.

Thank You christ1,
There was an orphaned calendar - I went to calendar view, the left sidebar was collapsed, so I pulled out the sidebar and there was an old calendar that was linked to my google profile. I needed to create a new dummy calendar to be able to unsubscribe to the problematic calendar. I'm now left with the dummy calendar as seems you need at least one..
