Why do I need an admin password to install MetroVPN on Mac?

Last updated: February 09, 2024

The need for an administrator password during the installation of MetroVPN on macOS is a standard security feature of the operating system. macOS requires user authorization to ensure that any software installation is intentionally initiated by the user, preventing unauthorized or harmful software from being installed without consent. This password is not specific to MetroVPN but is required for all installations that modify system settings or add new applications. The administrator password is simply the password you use to log into your Mac. Enter it correctly to proceed with the installation.

Additionally, MetroVPN itself is a trusted and secure application designed to enhance your privacy and security. By following the standard macOS security protocol, you can ensure that your device remains safe while installing essential software like MetroVPN. This process adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring only verified users have the authority to install new software on your Mac.
