WARNING! A third party extension is trying to silently modify your site's security settings.

This tells you which extension triggered this error message. Please contact its developer and ask them to fix this issue by REMOVING the code which automatically modifies .htaccess Maker settings.

Hello,

there is indeed a bug if you are using NginX, where Admin Tools thinks someone else is tampering its files. A new release will be published in the following days, but I do not have an exact time frame, in the meanwhile you can install the latest dev release that will take care of it.
