Hi @Khalid9030
Make sure you're testing it from user's perspective.
And if you would like to apply for admin also, just uncheck the box Admin overrides.
Cheers,
Tai Vu

Please check if there is another ACL which is granting access.
If any ACL resolve to true, access is granted, also when some other is returning false.
Help others to find a correct solution by marking the appropriate response as accepted solution and helpful.

Do you have another ACL for the same field?
Write ACL maybe?
Can you show a screenshot of the ACL you have created.

any field level ACL is granting the edit?
Did you debug ACL and check which one is that?
