//Edit Okay now I found in TWRP when I wanna reboot my phone if I want to install SU binary I swipe to install, but still no root installed

On stock rom just flash SuperSU zip in TWRP. It will install everything required, including an control app called SuperSU where you can manage root app's permissions.

How did you unroot?

In SuperSU app 'Full unroot and cleaning' and after it in twrp flashed zip file unSU.zip

Install B588 via dload, no data will be erased.

Thanks for reply, i fixed this by:
Flashed stock recovery, download same software ver as i already have installed, put update.app in dload, and installed it by v+, v-, power, and i got it working without any data lost

Maybe you're doing it wrong. Must work with TWRP 3.1.0-2 + SuperSU-v2.79-SR3 or SuperSu V2.82.

How can I remove Magisk?

I've flashed Magisk, but because I can't get Xposed to work, I'd like to remove Magisk and install SuperSU, but I don't know how. I tried to flash the uninstaller via TWRP and it says everything is fine, but after rebooting it just stays installed. If I try to flash SuperSU anyway I get stuck on boot. I have to flash stock boot.img via TWRP and then Magisk magically reappears. I tried using MiFlash but it refuses to do anything. It says no permission.
One possible solution, I guess, would be to flash stock ROM via TWRP. Can this be done? Any other ideas? Or am I just stuck with Magisk until a new version is available?

Magisk is pretty much "useless" for now. Because it is based on system-less root, and cannot be updated (because still in testing phase! Newer Xposed module from Magisk requires latest Magisk root binary, which is pretty out of option atm as we can't update to the latest binary). The only solution if you want to have proper root access is:
1. Head over to Xiaomi MIUI website and download the full stock ROM again, and then flash it via fastboot (choose flash_all_except_storage.bat if you want to preserve your data).
2. Once flashed, reboot back to bootloader and unlock it.
3. While still in bootloader flash the correct CF-Auto root boot image for your ROM (contains SuperSU 2.82 binary, https://desktop.firmware.mobi/device:1748)
4. Wait patiently and it will automatically reboot. Install SuperSU from Play Store if you want root management app.
5. If you need Xposed, download the Xposed apk from XDA and then install it normally (not via recovery).
6. ??? Profit
*DO NOT INSTALL permanent TWRP as it will cause your phone stuck in boot loop.

Thanks for your help, but no luck. I understand what I'm supposed to do, but I can't get MiFlash to work. When I try to flash stock image I get a "Permission Denied" error. (I have unlocked my bootloader successfully). I tried flashing modified stock image from here But then I couldn't boot. My only solution is to flash stock boot.img via TWRP and I can boot, but I stay stuck with Magisk.
So far, the only options I can think of is to wait for a recovery-flashable ROM, a new software update or a new version of Magisk.

You couldn't boot, are you using permanent TWRP?
Have you tried download the Full ROM from here and run this (as attachment)?
http://en.miui.com/download-333.html
Btw, place the folder under 1 directory only eg: as attachment. (I tried in multiple directory eg: "D:\Phones\ROM\Stock ROM", it just wouldn't flash)

@soralz
OMG!!! I can't believe it. MiFlash refused to let me flash because I tried to do that from the wrong location. Weird??!!
Good. I’ve managed to follow your instructions and success!! Just a minor note, I couldn't flash the modified boot.img directly via fastboot, it still won't let me. But I just booted TWRP (without flashing) and then flashed it from there. Again, THANK YOU!
BTW, yes, I had flashed permanent TWRP and then unsuccessfully tried to remove it.

Oh you manage to fix that? Good for you then. And yes you cannot have permanent TWRP and SuperSU at the same time. The CF-auto root for me I just click root.bat and done. btw side note, you will lose root after each update, besure to check out the new patched boot image. I m sure in the future we will have automated process, don't need to re-root manually after each update

I'm unable to install SuperSU

I managed to finally unlock the bootloader on my P8 lite by downgrading to Android 5. Once there, I rooted the phone with KingRoot, got the unlock code with grep and unlocked the bootloader. Then, I unrooted and flashed a rom to have Android 6. I then flashed TWRP recovery and found some zips that were supposed to give root access (named "1.zip" and "2.zip"). After flashing, SuperSU was not installed, attempts to install from apk got denied and flashing it seemed successful, but upon booting I can't find it anywhere. I even tried to sign the apk with no luck. Any ideas? I may need to re flash the root zips.

root
you need twrp--> supersu.zip install.
