The switch will not move

Two completely different causes that look identical. Up to macOS 12 there is a padlock at the bottom left, and while it is closed every switch springs straight back without macOS explaining why. From macOS 13 the padlock is gone; a switch that stays stuck there usually means the Mac is managed by an employer.
