The TightVNC Control Authentication window is randomly showing asking for the Administrative password input without user interaction. This is happening for three clients within the last 24 hours.
OS: Win10 Home 2004 build 19041.1083, Win10 Pro 2004 build 19041.1083
To bypass had to remove the administrative password.
TightVNC version 2.8.59 and 2.8.27

Additionally having this problem on a handful of client machines.

Upgraded to the newest version of TightVNC, and removed the system tray icon to rule out user error. Still occurs
