Gnome Power Saving Options, issue..?

Can't change the Power Saving Options

Whenever i change the Screen Blank, Automatic Suspend or Power Button Behavior, they change back to default as soon as i leave that menu section. Is there any other way to change those options besides Settings? I’m using Gnome but never had this problem on any other gnome distro.

I am not sure disabling suspension or hibernation has anything to do with this issue.
