Hi, I've tried to create a new database file and tried to set password on an empty DB, still the same.

Can anyone confirm this, version 8.5?

I guess it is up to development to answer this, can you also describe what version of EPIM 8.5 you are using?
Portable or Desktop and is it the PRO or Free version? I can not make this out on the printscreen.

I use the 8.5 portable version, did a conversion from 8.15 to 8.5 recently and also again today.
After that I did set-up a password (also aes-128) and it worked without a problem. Also I tested it on a new database and again the password was added without a problem. So it is not a generic problem/error in the software.

Yes, knowing which EPIM version (number and Pro/Free) and which encryption algorithm you are using is important.

Hi, I'm using desktop EPim Pro 8.5 on Windows 7 pro 64bit, I've tried to use aes 128 and 256 and the result is same.

I also had some previous installs on this machine of epim for validating purposes, can I somehow do a clean uninstall?

Please re-download and re-install version from here: https://www.essentialpim.com/get-epim (even though you have the same version number) and it should fix the encryption issue.
