How to enable the root account in Ubuntu

In fact, I personally think this is not necessary, because when you need the root permission, you can use sudo. If you need to enable the root account in Ubuntu, perform the following operations:

Sudo passwd Root

This command will reset the root password, enter the new password as prompted, and confirm it. After that, you can log on to the system as the root user.

If you want to disable the root account, run the following command:

Sudo passwd-l Root
