Finders keeps popping up, Finder wants to make changed, Use touch ID or password to allow. I can do this but I keep getting this until I force Finder to restart. Then it works for about 15min and the popup appears again.

Had the same issue but not in Safe Mode/Other user. Found out the issue was related to the Synology Drive app (used for Time Machine backups). Revoking Full Disk access for the Synology Drive app made the "Finder wants to make changes" popups stop.

See if the problem is present when you boot in safe mode, which disables 3rd party extensions and performs some system cleanup.

Reboot and test as normal...
The test tells you third party interference—most extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode,
the third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled temporarily.

I am having the exact same issue since I upgraded to Tahoe. I updated to 26.0.1 last night and hoped that would fix it, but no luck. It constantly asks for my password and whether I enter it or just hit cancel, it asks again and again. I can hit Esc 20-30 times and then it goes away for a bit, then starts asking again.
I have not booted in Safe mode yet, so I will give that a try.
I am having the same issue on my laptop since updating to Tahoe.
But not on my desktop.
Both have synology cloudstation installed.
Nothing related to it in the full disk access section ...

I am having the same issue, have turned off full disk access for Synology Drive app, when will I be able to turn that access back on? I use this app 24/7.
If this can not be fixed soon, how do I go back to macOS Sequoia to solve this issue?

I've tried everything including other suggestions by chatgpt to no avail. the finder keeps becoming unresponsive repeatedly.
I am having the same problem and have Synology.
How do you revoke full access?
