Can you not remove “Releases” and “Packages” section from your repository in GitHub?

There is a gear icon on the repository page “Edit repository details” and it seemingly allows you to remove those sections from the page but they don’t do anything. Is it just me / is this limited with a free account or just a bug?

Couldn’t find anything about this by googling. Any answers much appreciated!

    Commenting incase someone bumps into this issue in the future:

    I couldn’t figure it out and nothing worked. Later I wanted to delete commits so I made a new repo and pushed the files there and just out of curiosity tried disabling “Releases” and “Packages” in the new repo and it worked!

    I guess it’s a bug. Just deleted the old repo.
