Description of problem:
After "finish writing",mediawriter asks for password to “check the written data“,and if you don't type the password in time,you will see picture 2.
Even if you are lucky:watch the screen and see the pop up and type in the password,there is still something else: the screen keeps blinking from time to time.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mediawriter-4.0.4-0.fc25.x86_64

How reproducible:

Thank you for the report. The blinking screen is a different issue than the second password prompt. I know about the problem, unfortunately, however, I didn't find enough time to fix it because it requires some structural changes to how FMW works in Linux. Now we don't use polkit directly at all - everything is handled through udisks2/storaged. However, there's a timeout for how long you get the authorization for calling privileged methods on the UDisks2 interfaces and sometimes we hit it between the writing and checking.
