Kent,

No app that follows the Apple Toolkit allows this. I am neither confused nor have you contradicted me. My original advice remains unchanged. Writing to Root was disabled in El Capitán.

Had the OP described the path, it would be easy to see the mistake but this has not happened. Instead, we got this:

and I'm guessing that we don't know the real problem.
