How to Enable Root User in Ubuntu

How to Enable Root User in Ubuntu :-

If you switched from Windows to Ubuntu and you are searching for Administrator user here, you will not find it. Because in Linux ( and Unix in general), there is a Super User named Root. Super User can do anything and everything, and thus doing daily work without typing the Sudo command.
For me it’s boring to always enter sudo to run any program. However it,s good practice to run your OS with less privileges.
