Can't change "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Subscription Settings Service" in Farm Services.

Question

Can't change "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Subscription Settings Service" in Farm Services.

ComputerHabit 1,051

I'm trying to learn about setting up hybrid services for Sharepoint Subscription Edition.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/hybrid/set-up-sharepoint-services-for-hybrid-environments

The article states that I need to enable "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Subscription Settings Service" in Farm Services. When I follow the directions, it shows me the settings, but it is not editable.

I understand I can try PowerShell. What I want to know is why are the instructions not working? Did this ever work like that?

Thank you

Never mind. I had to move the URL for the Central Admin from the Trusted Sites zone to the Local Intranet Zone.

Yeah I know. It's a silly policy. It means lots of unresolved questions.
