battery preferences

Hello,


I'm trying to figure out how to actually change the battery preferences on my new M1 MacBook Pro. Here is a screenshot of the battery preferences window (notice how all the options are gray and not able to be changed). Running Big Sur 11.3.1 which I believe to be the most recent version.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

What happens if you hit restore defaults...


You can try simply rebooting...


If no resolve try a Safeboot to clear system cache

If you still have an issue, reinstall the macOS on top of your existing macOS (non-destructive) to sort anomalies
