How to change the owner of the /etc folder?

Question

linux

Changed ownership of the /etc folder. How can I change the owner back to root on this folder? There is only access to the terminal.
Any help would be appreciated

Answer 1

sudo chown root.root -R /etc

Answer 2

If there is a root password - write in the terminal
su -
enter the password and set the owner of the /etc directory to the root user.
If there is no root password, log in in single user mode and set the necessary rights. Google how to enter single user mode for your version of the system

Answer 3

chown root:root /etc
