Hey Folks, here is how I have been resolving the issue
I suggest to use Google Workspace Sync for Microsoft® Outlook ( Easily found with google search of GSSMO) - *Note, this will only work for G-Suite emails, not a @gmail.com address*
Using Google Workspace Sync for Microsoft® Outlook (AKA GWSMO) it will create a new outlook profile, however, you will finally be able to have your outlook calendar sync 2 ways to your calendar at google, and sync contacts!
Best,

There are many things I don't like about the GSSMO solution (new outlook profile, annoying additional synch add-in/software that runs in the background, cannot rename the email account, so it is a long thing like "Google Workspace - email address" etc.), but would have to use it temporarily until the Outlook team fixes the real issue with the IE browser control embedded into the authentication screens and to be honest I guess it is a simple change in the security zone settings to allow some google Urls to run Javascript.
It is a shame that Outlook on my Mac laptop works properly, while Outlook on my Windows 11 workstation does not work.
