It is looking for your admin psswd.
Is this your personal machine or bound to some Enterprise/MDM/work account?
Are you admin?
Psswd are case sensitive—verify your CAPS lock is not on or toggle it to verify
Are you also logged into your admin account...? If not log out of the user you are in and log into your admin/user
Log out of your account on your Mac - Apple Support
