Can't install software due to password

Hi everyone,


I cannot install software I have down loaded as it asks for a password, this is not my Apple ID password but for changing things on the Mac. most of the time it also works with my fingerprint but not for installing software. where can I change this password. my MacBook is less than a year old.
