system preferences (security and privacy advanced) not working on ventura

On ventura 13.4.1 I am trying to change the idle time duration before I am logged out. No matter what I do in the advanced setting of privacy and security I get logged out after about 20 min.

iMac 27″, macOS 10.13

A SafeBoot Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support will sort many anomalies



if no resolve—The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.5 - I would start there and compare your results.
