I am somewhat baffled, why some people would like to run rkward as root. It is definitely not something recommended, and I am not sure, whether there is any true use case for it (although you are not the first person to ask). Perhaps, if you could tell us what you want to achieve, we can suggest a workaround. Anyway, the immediate reason why running as root fails is indeed sandboxing restrictions in the embedded QWebEngine. The correct way to pass additional parameters (such as --no-sandbox) to the QWebEngine is by using environment variables: sudo QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--no-sandbox" rkward Regards Thomas
