Why a static ip?
A quick Google query on the subject reveals many other forum posts that ask about the very same issue:
networking - how to enable 'Properties' button of TCP/IPv4 in Network connections in Windows 7 - Super User
TCP/IPv4 Properties Button Disabled... ??? - Microsoft Community
windows 7 local area connection ipv4 properties greyed out
In all cases, they say that a malware infection was the culprit. No idea if its actually that in your particular case, but it may be worth to do a virus scan on the affected computer. Also, a sfc scan can help.
Hi,
One thing different than mine is that first screen shot you show shows no ipv6 connectivity ?
Don't ask me how to set it up :)
But we don`t use ip6 connectivity, not yet, at least not that I know of.

Hi,
Mine shows Internet just as ipv4 does.
Need it or not I don't know but has she done anything to disable ipv6 ?
Hi, remove the adapter driver in Device Manager.
Tick the box to delete the driver software and re-boot.
This will re-set the connectivity properties.
