            Bug ID: 477819
           Summary: Repeated Root Access Request
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: zizu0000 at gmail.com
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Dolphin asks for Admin/root password every 5 minutes or less  :(

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Try to access tera bytes of NTFS files data
2.  In less than 5 minutes or so it will ask for root password
3.  It almost immediately forgets root password

OBSERVED RESULT
Try to access/move NTFS files from an NTFS drive to another exfat drive and you
will constently need to keep entering root password.  This substantallty slows
down the file operations needed.  :(

EXPECTED RESULT
REMEMBER or at least cache root password longer than 5 minutes...hopefully
until that dolphin session terminates...  This is actually 2023 and the linux
babies of yester-year are all grown up now.  :/

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Latest Tumbleweed - a freshly downloaded and installed today

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I fully understand Dolphin developers hate root but this non-sense causes
people to seek out hacks to get around their stubborness  :(
