There was a time when you could go to the terminal and type in

the ability to work on files / folders or directories now? Can
anyone point me in the right direction here?
Log out and log back in with X instead of Wayland.
This is the correct answer. Choose the "Gnome on Xorg" session at the
login screen after you click on your user name. Wayland does not
support applications running as root. I did see that soon X
applications will be able to run as root under Wayland.
