Can't change Sharing & Permissions after update to Sonoma

I'm an Admin for login etc ... except in Sharing & Permissions for the Macintosh HD


I'm the owner and only user of my laptop. I recently had problems opening some folders and files. To ID the problem I went to Macintosh HD in my Finder sidebar > Get info where I noticed my name User account is not listed under Sharing & Permissions. System (Read & Write), Wheel (Read Only), and Everyone (Read Only) are listed. When I try to add myself, my login password opened the lock, but then when I selected my name with + I got the error message: "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have the necessary permission."


MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.0
