Description
Steps to reproduce
- create or open exisiting calendar in Nextcloud calendar app
- share the calendar with admin or team members
- as soon as the calendar is shared, it is not possible to edit the settings of the calendar again
- it is also not possible to unshare, export or delete the calendar
- the only option is for "calendars WITH tasks" to delete them at the tasks app.
Expected behavior
the shared calendar should be work as usual. Settings should be possible to be maintained. It should be possible to unshare, export or even delete the calendar.
It should be possible to add shared calendars by the person that I have shared the calendar with, without my password. That's not possible anymore. Now I have to open my calendar with MY password at their device as work around.
Actual behavior
just opening the settings of a shared calendar, the window closes after 4 seconds and either restarts or I have to login again. This doesn't happen with calendars that have not been shared. The issue occurs inside Nextcloud, also while Thunderbird or DAVx5 are not active.

Research direction
No source file, test, or Nextcloud version is identified. Reproduce the issue in Calendar app 5.1.2 with a shared calendar, then trace the settings and sharing flow; done means shared calendars can be edited, unshared, exported, and deleted without the window closing or requiring another login.
