How to Stop Mac from Asking for Password When Deleting Files?

Are you tired of constantly being prompted to enter your password every time you want to delete a file on your Mac? It can be frustrating and time-consuming, but there is a way to stop Mac from asking for your password when deleting files.

The reason your Mac asks for a password when deleting files is due to the User Account Control (UAC) feature designed to enhance security by preventing unauthorized changes to your system.

To stop Mac from asking for a password when deleting files, you can adjust your UAC settings by following these steps:

1. Click on the Apple menu and select 'System Preferences'.
2. Click on 'Security & Privacy'.
3. Go to the 'General' tab.
4. Click the lock icon at the bottom left and enter your password.
5. Uncheck the option that says 'Require password after sleep or screen saver begins'.
6. Close the lock by clicking it again.

By making these changes, your Mac will no longer ask for a password when deleting files. However, keep in mind that this will slightly lower the security level of your system, so proceed with caution.
