      File Manager asks for my password. The terminal also. Not only if I use "sudo", but whenever I open it, it asks for my password.

      Etc.

      When using this volla tablet, I have to type this password over and over again.

        @Alain I'm not referring to system settings but the settings for those individual apps - Terminal and File Manager.
        For Terminal, it's the cog icon on the top right for example.

          @Alain check the app settings.
          For the files app, it's a toggle:

          For the terminal app, it's a checkbox:

            Can't find it... In system settings I have "flight mode", "rotation lock", "updates", "network", "personal", "system", "about" and "reset".

                Got it, thank you. For File Manager, it's a little symbol, 2 horizontal lines, the top one has a circle on the left, the other one has a circle on the right.
