Running TeamViewer as root - where to dd the --allowRoot or -r option?

in Linux only

I ran updates on an existing Linux install I had and now Teamviewer is popping up with this message. I do prefer to use root on this system, so I want to tell Teamviewer to ignore the warning.

In which config file would I add this? In case it helps this is Kali Linux.

Thanks

    Same question. I've installed teamviewer.host on my centos8 server. It was fun for me to connect to my server when with the activated teamviewer.service before. However, when I update to the latest version, I failed to access my remote host, getting stuck at the interface showing the initialization of the screen. I'd like to know how to deal with it.

    Is there an answer to this? I would like to be able to run Teamviewer as root on a raspberry Pi. I get the same message as natv. Seems like there should be an answer, as the software itself is telling you to do this. Thanks!
