Cannot change the options in battery!

Hi guys,

I truly don't notice my battery options until recently. I cannot change the options in battery; all optiona in battery section are grey. How can I fix this? I am using Big Sur 11.4.

Thanks,

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

Do you have a “lock” in the lower-left corner which needs to be “clicked” to change settings?
