Windows 10: Require sign in from sleep option missing

On a new Dell XPS 15 in "accounts" section of Windows 10 settings.

I want to set it to "when PC wakes from sleep" in the "require sign in" section.

All that is listed is "never" or various time intervals.

Is there a way to enable it please?

Thank you.

Require sign-in not working

Dell XPS13 with Windows 10 Home

Trying to change the 'Require sign-in' on the Sign-in options page does not work. Will automatically return to 'Never' when navigating away from the tab, and computer will wake from sleep without requiring any sign-in.

Any suggestions?
