Thunderbird V115.0
New Thunderbird Version 115.0 Every time Thunderbird checks for new messages, there is a popup relating to "login to my hotmail account". There is no prompt for an actual password as it is saved in the profile settings. The popup stays on screen for 3 seconds and is very annoying. This never happened with any of the previous versions. It also happens when I click "Get Messages", and it doesn't matter which one of my many inboxes has the focus. Image attached.

I think I found the problem. After removing and then re-creating the profile, the OAuth2 prompt showed an error with Javascript. I then remembered that I had disabled Javascript. After re-enabling it, the OAuth2 authentication went through.
Cheers.

Remove the passwords from Saved Passwords in Settings, ensure cookies are accepted in TB Privacy & Security, set the authentication to OAuth2 for the incoming, outlook.office365.com, and the outgoing, smtp.office365.com, restart TB, enter the account password in the OAuth window to allow access.
Tested and working in TB 115 with a Hotmail account.
Thanks for your prompt response. If I set the password type to NORMAL, it works. Setting it back to OAuth2 doesn't prompt for password. The same popup appears as before. Any ideas?
As mentioned above, it works here with no OAuth prompts after the initial connection. Are you using a profile with 115 that was used in 102? I always recommend creating a new profile with a major release.

There could have been another issue. The original profile folder was called pop3.live.com. However the new profile folder, based on the domain, is outlook.office365.com. It was all working ok in version 112.
