How do I deal with this message: "Developer tools access needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue. Enter your password to allow this"?

Workaround - do not use the "Guide Me" option. Use the "I'll choose what I will work on" instead.

You can use the "Visit All" for each category (which is the same as Guide Me) except investments (where the bug is).

I'm going to try that now. Will report back if it doesn't work. All quiet = all solved! Many thanks for the idea, fortlip.
