The button may be grayed out but the Edit Permissions page is still there and working, just need to figure out and manually enter the URL to it..
1) Go to your permissions page https://myorg.sharepoint.com/sites/mysite/_layouts/15/user.aspx
2) click the group you want to edit, and note the groupID from the url
https://myorg.sharepoint.com/sites/mysite/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=6
3) Navigate to the edit permissions page of another group (it seems to work for the non-default ones) and change the groupId query in the url to the one you want to actually edit
https://myorg.sharepoint.com/sites/mysite/_layouts/15/editprms.aspx?obj=https%3A%2F%2Fmyorg%2Esharepoint%2Ecom%2Fsites%2Fmysite%2CWEB&sel=6
replace myorg and mysite in both the domain and query string, and replace 6 with the group id you want to edit

Thank you mufassa - your suggestion worked.
Hi jfranz - Thanks for your suggestion as well but enabling scripting somehow did not fix the issue for me at least. But thanks again for your suggestion
- KittyKmtApr 21, 2021Copper ContributorThanks!
- Wendy_LumsdenJul 03, 2020Copper ContributorFantastic - thank you that worked! Although did not solve that horrd 'limited access' assigned by Microsoft. In the end I just created custom security groups 🙂
