General discussion • Question about updates icon on taskbar

I am running Bookworm on a Pi5.
I am the only user on the system and no one else uses my machine.
When I click the updates icon to check what's about to be updated and then confirm the update I get asked to enter my password.
As it is a lengthy password with odd characters it's a bit of a bind typing it in.
Can I force the update app to run with root privilege?
I always used to do sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade from a terminal window which was conveniently quickly available with one or two keystrokes from my command history.
