How do I stop Ubuntu from asking for password?
To disable the password requirement, click on Application > Accessories > Terminal. Next, enter this command line sudo visudo and press enter. Now, enter your password and press Enter. Then, search for %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL and replace the line by %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL.
Why is Ubuntu asking for a password?
The password is required because it’s using sudo to run the actual installation as root. You may be able to address this by modifying /etc/sudoers to allow it to run apt-get and dpkg without a password (see or this post Run apt-get without sudo).
