Winzip claims that it can create a password protected zip on Windows 10, but the Winzip installer fails part way during the installation on Win10.
Is there an alternative to Winzip?

You can easily create password protected archives with 7zip.
Create a password for the document, re-enter it, then change the encryption method to AES-256, then press "OK."
