Hi, is there a “Nautilus-gksu for caja?” in synaptic package manager(SPM)? I am actually scared installing from SPM since this is my 18th times reinstalling this OS., I always fuc*** up my OS in the end
The panel icon that i use to bring up a root version is “gksudo /usr/bin/caja” and i’ve had no problems with it as far as i recall.

I also use “gksudo /usr/bin/caja” w/o any problem. But I am wondering if there is a mate version of this post from Official UBUNTU Forum . when i right click there is “run as admin” option. I hope you understand my grammar, English is not my native tongue. TIA
Dunno about that. I looked at your link but it sounds hinky somehow. There is a way to only enter the admin password once, when gksu comes up to ask for it, there’s a checkbox to remember it for the rest of your login session. But i’ve asked about that before and apparently nobody else finds it annoying to type the admin password every time they run gparted or whatever, or nobody knows how to set it up; i sure don’t, and i don’t have time to start grepping the whole of the source to find clues that i couldn’t find with google.

Hi @kernel, This isn't there by default? This is regular 16.04 LTS:
I never use it and prefer to start Caja as root (gksu caja / is exactly what I use via keyboard shortcut) and do things separately and cautiously.
EDIT: I see it now. The package caja-gksu is installed. I just verified 17.04 also has it by default.
