Bootcamp in disk utility but disabled

I installed Windows 10 on my late 2016 MacBook Pro using Boot Camp. Windows seemed to install correctly, and I used the Boot Camp system tray to get back to my macOS. However, when I tried to get back to my Windows partition using the Start Up Disk preference pane, the Boot Camp partition was not there.

I checked in my Disk Utility, and my Boot Camp partition is there, however I cannot select it and it is "greyed" out as if it is disabled. How can I enable it so that it shows up in the Start Up Disk preference pane?

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016, 4 TBT3)

I used the option button while restarting and my disks showed up on the screen. When I got back into my MacOS the bootcamp disk then showed in my Start Disk preference pane in System Preferences. Fixed now, not sure why it didn't initially show up.
