I also miss the feature to right click on folder to open as root... I used this
a lot. And I've always used PCManFM with MATE deskop.
I think it was very noticeable that you were in root mode because of the
colorful warning message and the different color window... I don't know how you

That is very depressing nobody was so mature to read specifications and
find an error in the script on Wiki page. Only problem with it is: it
should contain %f instead of %s. Fix your action file and you'll get
your option back. I'm sorry to offend you but people who are over 21

Yes, I would prefer to have "Open Folder as Root" available (maybe as a
configurable option).

Yes, I'm prepared to take responsibility for my actions.
The suggested "Run as root" workaround on LXDE wiki is not working for
me. I get "/home/steve/file: no such file or
I agree with Pierre,
loosing functionalities upgrading to a new version is always a shame. For sure
it's a great justification for people who wants to keep their Lucid Lynks
around.
At least checkbox to enable it inside the "advanced options".

As an aside, I can also now open drives on my local network without
having to enter a root password...
I was rather attached to that feature as well...
It kept my family out of drives that I didn't want f_ck_ed with...
I'm going to go back to 13.10 until someone can correct this stuff...

Yeah I agree, removing "Open folder as root" is not in the best
interests of the users...
If you don't know the root password you can't use it and if you do know
the root password it is a quick (and painless) shortcut to making
changes...
Please bring this feature back...
Work smarter not harder
I'm really missed this feature, could someone guide me how to get the
most updated code which contain this feature?

And I do agree, too. It's not a bug, but imho it's a regression.
I did love pcmanfm just for these two features, to the open folder as root and
open a terminal in the folder you're in, simply from the tools menu. One of
these features is gone. Please bring it back.
Thanks

I agree with Pierre. Open folder as root is incredibley useful. I do
not really see this as a serious security issue either, since you do
have to supply the root password, so you should know what you are doing.
If safety is an issue then maybe add a warning that this means anything
can be done fr
I have to agree with ianorlin. It is not a bug as LStranger says, but
it was really useful and is missing if you think in terms of usability.
It is not obvious enough that people will use it by mistake.
I have found myself promoting Linux to a number of people only to find
myself apologizing to t
Running pcmanfm as root means all the applications will be ran under
root which is not safe you know (well, if you want to risk your system
and walk on the blade then I can see the reason) and I never saw any
reason to run editor/browser/wine/etc. under root (and you want exactly
this, don't you?)
