Repeated query for Mac's password?

Open tvirku opened this issue 1 year ago • 10 comments

I just updated to 1.2.2. Thanks for a useful app! But, since then, I'm continually asked for my Mac's password if I've booted the Mac. This is different to the past. Is this OK?

same issue, after the update it is asking several times for password and also not starting with macos

Same issue.. almost every time it says "Battery needs to apply a backwards incompatible update, to do this it will ask for your password. This should not happen frequently."

but sometimes it starts with another error "Battery needs an internet connection to download the latest version, please connect to the internet and open the app again."

Run battery visudo once

@tollfree it just says "The existing battery visudo file is what it should be for version v1.2.7"

same issue happens afterwards.. asking for mac password every time it opens

bump - same here for every reboot and every time the program is stopped and restarted.

bump - same here, unsure if related to recent sonoma upgrade

This is extremely annoying, as touchID doesn't work to authenticate.
