Change or remove Teams Expiration -option does not Show up

Question

My first post was auto deleted (I have no idea why)

I need to change various Teams expiration dates and so far have found no GUI or PS method to do so. I may have policies on the teams with expirations but I don't know how to determine that. Some teams do not have expirations.

One post pointed to this but I don't see these options

Here's one offered answer (I don't even See a pencil or I'd edit here)

Go to the Teams Admin center > Teams > Manage teams.

1. Select the team that you want to modify.
2. Click on the pencil icon next to the expiration date to edit it.
3. Change the date or select "Never" to remove the expiration date.
4. Click "Save".

To curb the number of unused teams, as an admin, you can use Microsoft 365 group expiration policy to automatically clean up unused teams. Because teams are backed by groups, group expiration policies automatically apply to teams as well.

It's important to know that expiration is turned off by default. Administrators have to enable it for their organization if they want to use it. An administrator will have to enable the expiration policy and set the properties for it to take effect. To enable it, go to Microsoft Entra ID > Groups > Expiration. Here you can set the default group lifetime.

The group lifetime is specified in days and can be set to 180, 365 or to a custom value that you specify. The custom value has to be at least 30 days.

If the group doesn't have an owner, the expiration emails will go to the specified email.

You can set the policy for all of your groups, only selected groups (up to 500), or turn it off completely by selecting None. When You select None all groups which are active and pending for verification will have no expiration date. However, the groups that are already expired aren't impacted. Note that currently you can't have different policies for different groups.
