May be from local software, but i used the same (winzip) to package again and solved my problem.
I downloaded again xerte 1.11
Installed again.
First package ok (without passwords)
Afterwards all of them gave pass protected files.
I solved packaging again the generated files with external zipper (winzip)
Best regards
Martin
