Asking root permission without any profile

I have already tried to search on internet, and I have seen that a similar problem has been reported, which has been directed to the use of the activity for airplane mode or for data connection,but at the moment I don't have any profile or activity, why does tasker keep asking me for root permissions every hour?

There is the last check permission with the tasker log and the runlog

I hope this is helpful

Hmm, Tasker checks for root once when the app first loads. Is your device maybe killing Tasker repeatedly which would make it check more times?

I removed the battery optimization for tasker when it was installed, what else should kill it? I  am on oneplus 5t rom stock... Maybe the adaptive battery function? But tasker isn't optimized, so i think it is ignored...

Hi there.
To make sure Tasker and the AutoApps run in the foreground please check here: https://tasker.joaoapps.com/userguide/en/faqs/faq-problem.html#00

Pay special attention to the location part. If Tasker doesn't have permission to get location in the background it might not work correctly, so disable and re-enable the location permission and make sure that you allow Tasker to always access it.

Make sure to check here too: https://dontkillmyapp.com/?app=Tasker

Hope this helps!

Ok I understand what the problem might be, but if tasker check for the root at every start of the app, without any activity that use root permission, it isn't a tasker bug? Why it check the root if I don't use root? Why it isn't check for other permission when I don't use it? 

I know, I can trust Tasker, but I don't want to give it a permission until I use it... 

It does so to make UI interaction with root actions more seamless... But I can try to work around it, thanks.

Ok, I tried working around it. Can you please try this version? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UfMEt1H6wjlMDdsqByn-flCRqE45PdJ1/view?usp=sharing

I have send you a bug report, it appended when I recovered the backup that I made before installing the version that you have sent me, and they ask me the root permission (without any activity using root), and without doing anything it ask me many time to send you a bug report. If you want I can send my backup

Yes, even if i don't use the smartphone

Tasker checks for root access to know which actions it can make available in the UI. Does it ask you for the permission even if you're not using the UI?
