sudo nautilus command is to open a window with root privileges to manage files.

For example, if you click directly on the computer, there are many folders and files that can only be operated by the root user, so you cannot paste, cut, delete, etc., or create new files on the folder or file. Just use the nautilus command.

For example, if you want to modify /etc/apt/sources.list without a terminal, just click on the folder to enter the directory. You only have permission to view it.
