get access to root

(base) root@kali:~# jupyter notebook
[C 20:24:50.702 NotebookApp] Running as root is not recommended. Use --allow-root
not able to run jupyter notebook ...

@poorguy - The OP is running Kali, where the only user IS root.

@pratap73 - The program is complaining because it isn't meant to run as root. The error message is telling you to use the --allow-root option to allow the program to run as root.

So run it as:

jupyter notebook --allow-root

i have some query about my root username which is (base)root@kali~# , what does " (base)" refer to?

Just an FYI. In Kali, you can choose to make one or more regular Users with restricted access, and I do not know if the program would run under that environment, without complaint.
