Help How can I eliminate the "Allow access to device data MTP" confirmation pop-up upon USB connection?

I recently updated my Sprint Galaxy S5 to stock Sprint Android 6.01 (and rooted it). Whenever I connect the phone to my PC via USB, the phone displays a message asking me to allow or deny the MTP connection. Even if I briefly disconnect & reconnect to the same USB port, it asks me again. I never want to see that message again. I always want to allow an MTP connection (just like it used to be on Android 5.0). Is there any way that I can automatically allow the MTP connection?

Interestingly, of my family's four rooted, Android 6.0.1 Sprint Galaxy S5's, only 3 of them exhibit this behavior. One of them doesn't provide the message. It just makes the MTP connection.

Here's the exact message that I get when connecting:

Allow access to device data
An MTP connection will be established to access the data on the connected device.
DENY ALLOW
 
Hi, do you have "Developer Options" enabled? If so open it and scroll down to "USB Configuration" and select "MTP" from the drop down box, this worked for me. Phil
 
Hi, if it is not showing in settings go to "Settings", "About device", scroll down to "Build number" and tap on it seven times rapidly, it should then appear in "Settings" . Phil
 
For my Samsung Galaxy Note 9
Disconnect phone from computer (if connected)
Uninstall old USB driver
Download and install driver version 1.5.63.0
Revoke USB debugging authorizations from developer options on phone
Turn off USB debugging on phone
Select MTP option in USB configuration of developer options
Restart phone
Turn on USB debugging
Connect phone to computer
Should get prompt to allow access plus option to always allow
 
just disable it from deveoper options or when plug to the laptop disable it or just buy a CHARGING only chord to stop it
