Password set "not authorized"

Question

Using Quicken subscription on Windows 10, after making a year-end copy of my data file, I want to set a password, but get message "You are not authorized to take this action. Please check your credentials or try a different action."  This happens whether I am logged  in as User or Administrator;  All my earlier year files have passwords.  What to do???
