The administrator user name or password was incorrect. (-60007)

I upgraded to Ventura, and now I keep getting the following message popping up:


"The administrator user name or password was incorrect. (-60007)" and then it asks to edit and opens script editor.


I don't know what it means or what to do. if I click "done" it just keeps opening up. If I clcik "edit" it opens script editor. Please help fix this, thanks.

Upgraded from what macOS you do not say...?


Try adding "Script Editor" to Full Disk Access as well as "Terminal" if necessary...

>System Settings>Privacy&Security>Full Disk Access
