Hello,

Please elaborate the question with more details:

put a password protection on the archive of my directory

The WordPress Password Protection works for each single post/page, it won't protect entire archive page:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Password_Protection

And I have tested the URL you mentioned above:
hidden link

I can see the two items in the result:
- ACCOUNTANT
- SECRETARY

You can setup one of them as Password Protected, then test again:
