The "Wait" feature is greyed out for the screensaver

The "Wait" button and "On resume" are both greyed out. How do you enable
these features, so that one can adjust the minutes.

Thanks in advance.
 
This happens if the Screensaver timeout is set using Group Policies.

Using Group Policy Editor (GPEDIT.MSC)

Screen Saver timeout
(User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\Display)

Registry key:

ScreenSaveTimeout
(HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Control Panel\Desktop)

Group Policy Registry Reference:

Hi Mary,

That didn't work. The "Wait" feature is still greyed out.
