Thunderbird and Microsoft Exchange server 2019 phantom folder

I am using microsoft exchange 2019 mail server.
I use Thunderbird mailbox client
And during folder transfer, deletion or renaming, phantom folders are created.
I use the imap protocol.
If I install this mailbox on another computer, the phantom folders are loaded.
There are no such problems with Outlook. Can anyone tell me what to do about this?

    In Thunderbird, right click on the email account, select subscribe, uncheck those weird folders, and that will fix the folder problem!

      Good day, thank you for your reply. Yes, it will help only if you change the command mail.imap.auto_unsubscribe_from_noselect_folders to false
