Unable to remove capabilities from user

    As a multisite super admin, I added “Unfiltered upload” capability to a user with Administrator role on a subsite. The user is an administrator only for that subsite.

    Now I wish to remove that capability from the user.

    However, on the “Change capabilities for user xxxx form, the checkmark next to the “Unfiltered upload” capability is grayed out and I cannot now uncheck it.

    How do I remove this capability from this user?

    Environment:
    Wordpress 5.7
    URE 4.59
    Multisite with subfolders (abc.com/sitea, abc.com/siteb, etc.)

    Thank you.

    If you see user’s capabilities, not role’s, grey colored (disabled) checkboxes shown for capabilities granted to this user through the role(s). In order revoke them you have to revoke those capabilities from the role(s) granted to this user or grant him another role without these capabilities.
