Thanks for this report @alan-sims! We are tracking how this dialog gets surfaced to users in #2274, and you can specifically see some details about how it's being called in #2274 (comment). Positron (and VS Code upstream) use Electron's "safe storage" to store things that shouldn't be kept in plain text. We do know it's a fairly confusing modal and are working to see how better to handle it.
