Thunderbird repeatedly asking login to deleted *gmail* account
After deleting/removing a gmail account Thunderbird gets stuck in a loop constantly requesting that I login into that non-existing account.
The only solution I found was from over 2 years ago suggesting that we manually find and remove some random files, which also caused me to have to re-login into all of the existing accounts.
I feel like adding and removing accounts is a basic functionality for email apps. How has this not been fixed in over 2 years??
And why does it even remember removed accounts? If I remove it from the list of accounts I expect Thunderbird to delete all mentions of it from my system.

Edit:
Thunderbird somehow still remembers that deleted account and wont stop interrupting me.
Tried complete reinstall.
Thunderbird continues relentlessly popping up demands that I login into the deleted gmail account.
Reinstall again, this time hunt down any Thunderbird related file and apparently there are a ton of files that it fails to delete during uninstall.
Re-login into everything for the third time, hopefully now it wont start happening again.
As soon as I get time I'm looking for something less broken.
Idk how anyone can put up with this.
This could also be a Google Calendar linked via CalDAV, or a Google Contacts address book linked via CardDAV you didn't bother to delete along with the account.
I had the problem that a folder still existed after I'd deleted the account. It wasn't trying to download emails but there was data sitting on my laptop that was doing nothing. I only stumbled over it while I was looking at the folders in the Profile. When I found the account name (which is the name of the defunct server), I deleted it.
