I left the Beta of Focal Fossa running overnight and when I logged in
this morning, I found an open Authentication window with the message "To
change software repository settings, you need to authenticate" (see
attached screenshot).
I enter my password and the password field grey out.
The window stays persistent but is "invisible" to the mouse - i.e. if I click
anywhere in it, it actually clicks the thing behind it.
The Cancel button does nothing.
I had this same issue yesterday when actually running Software &
Updates.
