HiI'm looking to do the same thing.
I found kingroot is the most intrusive rooting software. It takes over your home screen, lock screen, popups galore. Cannot be disabled or removed from application manager. Hidden uninstall in the program itself. If there was a malware category for android, this would be king. (And the root doesn't even work, even though it says it is rooted on my phone)
I am new so I am not allowed to post links but there is a good tutorial out there on missingtricks dot net (and also on the XDA developers forum) to replace King Root with Super SU. It is very comprehensive and I have used that method before on my old LG tribute; you will need to install terminal emulator. Another way to do it (and keep your phone rooted) is to download the app SuperSUme, I have done it too and it is super easy.
