VPN keeps asking for user name and password? here's what you do

Many people had this issue and I have figured it out. Here's the solution:

  1. Open the search tool and lookup "keychain" and select "keychain access"
  2. When it opens, the window will have a search bar at the top right corner. Look up the specific VPN app that you're using. For example, "Windscribe" or "Disconnect" so that's what I searched for.
  3. Right click on it
  4. Click on "get info"
  5. Click on "access control"
  6. Select allow to access all applications
  7. Make sure to repeat steps 3-6 do it with all the entries that appear after you searched for your VPN app.
  8. Viola! You're all set! No more entering the username and password!


I hope this helps.
