Why does my Mac keeping asking for my password everytime I move a file?

I just upgraded my OS to Sequoia 15.3.2 and now every time I move a file from one folder to another I get a prompt to enter my login password. It even does this when I want to throw a file in the Trash. This is really annoying. Why is it doing this?
