Copy a Protected Worksheet to a new Workbook

[Evapar18]

I have a protected Worksheet and when I am testing it out I have no problem copying the worksheet to a new workbook. When a user opens the same workbook\worksheet. When he clicks RMB on the tab to tries the same maneuver everything is greyed out. He has to unprotect the sheet to copy the worksheet to a new workbook. We are both using Excel 2016.

This seems like a setting to me, but I have not been able to find it or search it out in Google.

Any ideas or suggestions?
