Known Issue: macOS Password Manager Helper Tool Installation
Users without elevated permissions receive a ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Password Manager ‘helper tool’ installation pop-up window requesting admin privileges to allow installation. Such users are unable to use their credentials to approve the installation of helper tool.
Symptoms
ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Password Manager may prompt users to add a helper tool to update the app, but are unable to do this due to insufficient admin privileges on their device.
Resolution
Install the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Password Manager app using the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Commands template. This installs the Password Manager in the ~/Applications folder (for example /Users/standardUser/Applications) and removes the existing app, but preserves all app data. Future updates requiring installation of the helper tool will no longer require admin credentials.

cp -R ~/Library/Application\ Support/ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú\ Password\ Manager/data/daemon/backup ~/Desktop/backup
- Jump to Updating Password Manager Using Commands to install Password Manager on the device using commands.

- You can verify this on the device by confirming that the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Password Manager app moved from /Applications (System apps folder) to ~/Applications (User apps folder). This allows users to perform updates without needing admin rights.
