    Root privileges for Dolphin (found work around)

    I know this has been ask before. But can't for the life of me remember how to get root privileges in dolphin. I don't know why this should be so hard in Kubuntu/KDE. Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Found a work around. And have added it to my main Menu.

    For others that want to know.
    Right click on the menu > edit Applications and add Dolphon (root) Entry with this start up command.
    Code:
    pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY KDE_SESSION_VERSION=5 KDE_FULL_SESSION=true dolphin
    (Caution: You can do real damage to your system if you delete or change system files. So when you launch dophin in root be very careful what you are doing!)
