Not password protected doc now having a password?

Hi all.

I installed Pro over the weekend.

I have a folder of non password protected documents that I have been resaving onto a new folder and then password prtocting them.

 

The first 8-10 all worked fine.

Then on the next as I open the original file it already has a password allocated - so when I attempt to put the password on that I wish I cannot. 

This has happened for the last 3-4 files that I have opened.

My password is 'simple / logical' so I know I haven't messed up on that side.

Is it possible that I have somehow created a 'master' password / one applicable to all new files opened?

Thanks all.

OK - so I was able to 'chat' with Sahana. They were able to resolve my issue. 

Essentially the location where I downloaded the files had already put on a pw protect - but not to view.

So i could view in Reader and Pro, but then not create my own pw.
