in Fing Desktop Installation issues/queries #1
  1. I'm using Find Desktop and getting a prompt that asks for my admin user/pw to add a new helper. I've not seen this from Fing before and can't find any indication of a new helper in emails or from the community. anyone else notice this? is this ok? thanks

    right, that would help. MacOS 11.2.2 and FD 2.4.1. 
    I have not seen this apart from the new version which was released today 2.5.0. Can you share the screenshot so I can help you. thanks

    I had cancelled the prompt, so restarted Fing to see if it would pop up again. image below. this time, after restart, I got a notification window from Fing noting the new version 2.5.0 is available. OK, feeling comfortable to enter admin now. thank you for help!
