A little Google goes a long way. In 5 seconds I found innumerable results to my query, "windows 11 folder options apply to folders greyed out".
The prevalent reason is 'A greyed out "Apply to Folders" button will occur when you are looking at a "library" folder because libraries pull together a view of files that can come from folders of different types. '
Make sure you are not highlighting "This PC" or any other Library when you open up the options. Highlight "Local Disk (C:)" and then try it. (disclaimer - I don't have Windows 11, so your libraries may be named something different, but just find the root of C:).

Moderators - since this thread is not technically about an AHK question, perhaps it should be moved to an appropriate section - thanks.
