The screen lock is not working, it does not lock the screen (no password required).

I would like it to prompt for a password every time the screen locks (clock screen).

All instructions tells me to enable this in privacy but I can not enable or disable as it's grey (gray).

Ubuntu 17.10 upgraded from Ubuntu 17.04, upgraded from Ubuntu 16.10.

Any help or advise would be great as I already tried many setting and installs and removes suggested on online.

Lock screen needs to be enabled:

gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen
false

If result is true then use:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen false
