I can't make a folder

im newbie to linux thing. after my fresh install of linux fedora,
somehow i cant make a new folder, i think its the administrator thing. but theres only one user in my machine
can anyone help me?



Try creating a directory in somewhere you have permsison to; Home, Desktop, Documents, etc. for example

Looks like you’re trying to create a directory on a device named “1”, which evidently does not permit you to write to it.

It you are trying to make the folder in the / partition you will need root privildges.
you can elevate your file manager with the pkexec commad. or in a terminal use sudo.
you don’t say which desktop your using?

KDE in the tags.

ive try using ls- l commands to see what directory i have permission to create new folder, and i can create a new folder in taht directories, but why i cant make in that particular storage? and how can i edit permissions to create a new folder in that device, (its my internal ssd i just create another partition to plan to save my file)

pardon my english

i use kde plasma, and yes i can create folder after i open it with adminstrator,
sorry for the confused ,
but can i make one user to have root permission?

Yes - either run your file browser as administrator, as you have discovered, or use sudo to run a command as root when you need to.

You also just log in as root from the outset. Only the two above are recommended though - you WILL at some point, wreck your system if you operate as the root user all the time. Guaranteed.

owh okay, i see, now i understand, thanks for the replied. have a good day :slight_smile:
