Renaming C:program file

Yesterday (3/7/2022) I started to get C:\Program” warning messages on my personal computer.    I see some replies in the Related topics.   The replies are several years old.    It’s difficult for me to determine if this is an issue that I should address and fix.   Or just ignore.   Can someone please help?

 

Here is what I’m seeing on my personal computer:  

File Name Warning:   There is a file or folder on your computer called “C:\Program” which could cause certain applications to not run correctly.   Renaming it to “C:\Program1” would solve this problem.    Would you like to rename it now?      I clicked on the Rename button.

 

After I click on the Rename button, I get the message “File Access Denied - You’ll need to provide administrator permission to rename this file”.     I clicked on the Continue button

 

After I click on the Continue button, I get the message “This action can’t be completed because the file is open in Webroot SecureAnywhere”.      Clicking on the Try Again button doesn’t help because the file is still open.
