Password should not be required for manual DataBase update. [M261] [V6]

A. THE BUG/ISSUE (Varies from issue to issue)
[ol]- Summary - Give a clear summary in the topic title, NOT here.

  • Can U reproduce the problem & if so how reliably?: Yes reliably.
  • If U can, exact steps to reproduce. If not, exactly what U did & what happened:
  1. Enable password protection.
  2. Close and re-open the GUI.
  3. Select manually update the DataBase and get prompted to enter the password.
  • If not obvious, what U expected to happen: I expected to be able to manually update the DataBase without requiring the need for a password, as I do not regard this as a critical configuration setting in which the password protection is intended for.
  • If a software compatibility problem have U tried the conflict FAQ?: N/A.
  • Any software except CIS/OS involved? If so - name, & exact version: No.
  • Any other information, eg your guess at the cause, how U tried to fix it etc: My guess is, it is a design fault.
  • Always attach - Diagnostics file, Watch Activity process list, (dump if freeze/crash). If complex - CIS logs & config, screenshots, video, zipped program (not m’ware)
