Cannot add or remove a Google calendar

I cannot add or remove a Google calendar in one of my TB profiles. I go through the menus: Create a new calendar -> On the network -> Google calendar -> pick a session > select the calendar. It shows me the Google calendar I want to add. I check it and click on the Next button and nothing happens. I suspect a corrupt profile. Any suggestions?

TB 56.0.b4, Lightning 5.8b4, Provider for Google Calendar 3.7b4, Windows 10.

Chosen solution

I solved the problem by creating a new profile and moving my stored email to it. I then recreated my Google calendars. I think the problem was a corrupt profile with too much crud and some damaged files.

As a first step, I'd go to Tools|Add-ons>Extensions and make sure both Lightning and Provider for Google Calendar are up to date. You can use the button at the top to check all add-ons, or right-click each individual add-on to see an option to check for updates.

I have done that. I have two separate installations with identical versions installed. One works fine the other fails with the error console messages I listed above.
