How to scan for live hosts: Nmap shows all IPs only when run as root when only 4 IPs are online and incomplete results when run as “--unprivileged.”

I have an issue with Nmap. I have Kali on my vm installed.

I want to scan the network for live hosts. But when I’m logged as root try nmap -sP 192.168.0.* Nmap reports that every IP in the subnet 192.168.0.* was live. But actually, only 4 IPs are online.

Meanwhile, ping command return correct results; I can ping all and it only shows live hosts.

When I run nmap -sP --unprivileged 192.168.0.* Looks like it works, but it doesn’t return not all live hosts.

Why command n Nmap ap doesn’t work without --unprivileged flag? How can I run it correctly?
