ATI 2017 won't let me modify the Backup Protection settings
I want to modify the Backup Protection settings on an existing backup to a network share, but the settings under Backup Protection are grayed out (yet look like there are already dots indicating a password yet the "Encryption method" box says "none".)
Anyone have any idea why & how to change it so I can turn on encryption? Is this a bug?

Hello John,
changing the backup protection options for an existing backup is not possible. Please create a new backup archive, set the protection options prior running the backup job.

I can confirm that cloning the settings of an existing backup task in ATI 2021 #39216 does not allow for the 'Protection' settings to be changed from that set for the original task.
A message is shown to say that the Protection settings can only be changed on new tasks!
So is a cloned task a new task or not??? It seems that Acronis deem it to not be a new task!
