This is necessary for Auto-Type to find windows.

@droidmonkey I personally don't use the Auto-Type feature and I believe I am not alone. Nevertheless I now have to click that "Deny" button every time I start the app. It would be really nice to have an option to completely disable it somewhere in settings, please.

Interesting, in my testing when I clicked deny it never prompted again

I'm getting it every time when I run the app after upgrading to Catalina. Not sure if it is the mac os feature or the feature of version 2.5, as I upgraded them both at the same time. Never had this on 2.4 + macos 10.14

Its the joy of macOS
