Hi, I have an app which accesses (reads and writes) some system files. In newer MacOS versions (from 12.2 maybe?) When it runs, I get many-many security popups with the message '"Myapp" would like to administer your computer. Administration can include modifying passwords, networking and system settings.'. If I click OK, it appears again, and I have to click on it 40-50 times (I guess it shows the popup window for every single file operation).

What should I do to see this window only once? I allowed my app "Full Disk Access". I also added the binaries inside it what is runs, but it didn't help.

When trying to debug it using Console, I see that these are "TCCAccessRequest" and "TCCAccessCopyInformation" popups.

Is your app signed with an Apple-issued signing identity?

Wow, you may be right :) I was pretty sure the app WAS signed, but apparently it isn't, now I tried with the signed version, and it seems to work. I want to make a few more tests, but this may be the solution indeed, thank You! :)
