Big Sur Battery settings greyed out

I am unable to change the battery settings. Everything is greyed out. All other settings are available?


I disconnected the power cable which didn't help.


Any ideas?

Try this: Go to SystemPreferences, Security and Privacy and unlock te padlock. Click on Advanced and select "Require an adminstrator password to access system-wide preferences". Click on OK.

If you go Battery now, and unlock the padlock, are you able to change the settings?
