When I used PCManFM with root access (I'm working with XAMPP so, I need root access...) after restarting the PC, it boot normally, it ask me for password as usual but it didn't recognise it...

I solve the problem by double restarting my computer, although it is not normal behaviour...
i guess the problems you are experiencing there ahve more to do with using your machine as a web server, than with using pcmanfm as root.
btw, for extensively doing things with root privileges, you should use the command line and not gui tools. starting some programs from pcmanfm with root privileges could damage your system.
you can start a root session in your favorite terminal emulator with "su" (not sure though if *buntu works as expected there).
2nd. I had some problems with wifi, I follow a guide to fix it but now again there is no way to change from ethernet to wifi. Further more when I'm coming back from suspended or hibernation modes, the ethernet stops working, and again I need to restart.
this is a seperate problem for a seperate thread, most probably for the forums of the distro you use (ubuntu forums?).
3rd. Since that I have laptop, I wanted to switch off the touchpad, I install a program for that but despite that in the program it is saved the setting to be off, it doesn't work each time that I boot my PC, and I need to uncheck it and check it again.
i have experienced something like that myself.
usually the best permanent solution is to edit the appropriate files somewhere in your systems guts. again, you're not the first to experience this.
4th. On preferences there is an option to put custom colours in your theme. Those in the preview are working fine, but after closing the window and pressing apply nothing changes.
that, too is a known problem.
3rd and 4th could be called bugs, but i'm pretty sure hundreds of reports have been filed already.
Also is there any guide on how to learn how to fix those kind of things? Because I really love linux and I want them to become perfect
there are.
