Hi Jimmy,
Well, I did not follow your suggestion exactly, but as people has said,
the root account is already and always there, even it has not been
assigned a password. So, against my real whish, not to activate the root
account, I gave the command sudo passwd root, and entered a password.
And now I suppose I have burned my ships and have no way back...
But! Nothing has changed. I can still not enter program icons to the
panel, and not define keyboard shortcuts. If I sort the icons on the
desktop they still, after a cold start, come back in a completely other
order, dispite I had marked "Keep ajusted" (right click on desktop).
So...?

Hi all,
So can someone help me get the command back, or do I have to make a new
reinstall, hoping for better luck. Possibly setting a password on the
Admin, hence activating that account, which I would prefer not having
to.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
Start the Stretch install cd/dvd in repair mode and when you get to
where you can start a shell in the install at the prompt type:# passwd
root and then enter the new root passwd and then reboot.
