Changed Country a long time ago but PayPal does not allow me to update the details into the electronic form. Doesn't allow me to change Country, only allow me to select the Country I no longer live in and the telephone prefix format of that Country.
My account has restrictions and I cannot fully use it.
Please help.

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / and bank accounts from within that country.
You are supposed to withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you leave your old country. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved.
The only exception is U.S expats can add their bank accounts to other countries paypal accounts (paypal is a U.S company so they allow their citizens to do this).
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
