Reporting services instance properties disabled

I am trying to access the reporting server properties in SSMS. But the link seems disabled and cant change any properties in there. Have attached a screenshot. Does anyone have an idea why its disabled.

I would check that the user running SSMS above has the report server System Administrator role.

Check this in Report Manager under Site Settings -> Security.

The other thing to note is that by default only the BUILTIN\Administrators group has this role. If you have UAC enabled this can cause issues; if you think you are already in this group you have to make sure you're loading SSMS with Run as Administrator to prevent any UAC restrictions.
