Created attachment 156944 [details] Right-clicking on a folder with a padlock in it and selecting "Open as Administrator" in the context menu. When I right-click on a folder with a padlock in it and select "Open as Administrator" in the context menu, a password prompt appears asking me to enter my password. However, if I decide to cancel the prompt by clicking on the "Cancel" button, the KDE agent window keeps popping up repeatedly. I have to click on the "Cancel" button 13 times in order to make the window go away. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right-click on a folder with a padlock in it. 2. Select "Open as Administrator" in the context menu. 3. Wait for the password prompt to appear. 4. Click on the "Cancel" button to cancel the prompt. OBSERVED RESULT The KDE agent window keeps popping up repeatedly, and I have to click on the "Cancel" button 13 times in order to make it go away. EXPECTED RESULT The KDE agent window should disappear after I click on the "Cancel" button once.
