I only have access to that Option Menu by using the Map Layer Menu. That hamburgermenu gives only "Delete".
But it works! Thank you!

You are in one Menu too deep when that happens!

When i´m in Outdoor Maps+ and i see "Check Subscription" and "Add Satellite Imagery", the menu gives me "No Options".
I choose my Birdseye download where i can see the card, the menu gives me only "Delete".
In the normal Map Manager screen, the menu is giving me "No Options".

It only works with the Maplayer button.

I do have that menu (Configure Raster Maps), but no option for enable/disable a downloaded one? See
Spoiler
I am talking about Satellite maps, not Outdoor Maps+.

The only way I know to enable/disable is via Map Layer and use the predefinied "Satellite" entry?

[EDIT]

Based on your screenshots I suspect, that you have more menus, when you have an active subscription for Outdoor Maps+. There I can see your mentioned menu, which I don't have.
