Windows 10: How to shut off metered connection that is grayed out

New WebCam, C270 HD from Logitech, said installation can not finish because of metered connection. Can not shut off this connection option as I did in the past. Toggle is grayed out. Have sent this request yesterday, no response from Fred. How to find my previous requests? Upon further research I see when hovering over the keyboard, UBS, Monitor and mouse in the Control Panel screen, that they also say that installation is not complete, yet they seem to all function. The camera and its microphone test as working. A Zoom test meeting did work and the LED light on the WebCam was illuminated. Dow

OneDrive - Metered Connection

Hi Sayyid,

Since you're using a SIM to be able to use the internet, Windows 10 automatically set your connection as metered if your Internet service provider limits the data you can use.

You can turn the Set as metered connection option to OFF by following these steps:

• Click the Internet access icon from the Taskbar.
  
• Click the network where you are connected, then click Properties.
  
• Locate and toggle the Set as metered connection to OFF.
  

Let us know if the message still appears after following the above mentioned steps.

Regards.
