Requesting administrative privileges - Extremely slow

Support
1

Hi,

I’ve encountered some issues using Local by Flywheel lately.
Every time I perform an action that requires administrative privileges, I am met with this small box in the upper right-hand corner, stating that “Local by Flywheel is requesting administrative privileges” then nothing happens.
After about 5-10 minutes, however, the prompt for my password appears, meaning I have to wait 10 minutes, EVERY SINGLE TIME the app requires my password (which is rather often and I would not exactly like to wait 10 minutes every time I have to perform a task).

Is this a known bug, and if so, are there any known fixes for this problem? I am using a Macbook Air Early-2014.

Thanks in advance

Hi Julian,

Sorry for the trouble!

I can’t say we’ve seen this issue before. Can you please go to Help » Reveal Local’s Log and then provide the file there?
