To use lxqt-sudo is important to not change your config files as if you did with sudo. You will need administrative privileges to edit config files but make sure you know what you are doing. To actually use LXQt sudo you will need to type your password into the :guilabel:`Password` field and then press the :guilabel:`OK` button. To see which attempt to authenticate you are on will be shown with :guilabel:`Attempt #`. To not run your command as root if you decide against it press the :guilabel:`Cancel` button. To copy the command you are running as root press the button with two sheets of paper.
