# Polkit Agent This plugin provides a Polkit authentication agent for Noctalia. It allows you to authenticate actions that require elevated privileges directly within the shell. ![Preview](preview.png) ## Important To use this plugin, you **must disable or uninstall your existing polkit authentication agent** (e.g., `polkit-gnome`, `polkit-kde-agent`, `lxpolkit`, etc). Having multiple polkit agents running simultaneously will cause conflicts and prevent this plugin from working correctly. > You may need to **restart your session or computer** after enabling this plugin for the changes to take effect and for the new agent to be registered properly.
