Kali Linux 2020.1 without root account

Kali Linux is a distribution based on Debian. It contains a very large safety tools and penetration tests.

Kali Linux

The project has just released a new version for the year 2020 and it brings a number of important changes. The new version, 2020.1, of Kali Linux merges the various desktop editions into a single option and removes the ability to run things as root by default.

"Καθ 'όλη τη of Kali's history (and its predecessors BackTrack, WHAX and Whoppix), the default credentials were root/toor. This is no longer the case. We no longer use the superuser account, root, as the default in Kali 2020.1. The default χρήστη είναι πλέον ένας τυποποιημένος χρήστης που δεν έχει προνόμια."

To read the reasons behind this move you can visit a previous post at blog of distribution.

This is a very big change, and the developers are asking you to report any problems.
