    What steps did you take to turn on protection? What options did you select? What editing are you still able to do? When you are in the review tab, did the Protect Worksheet button change to Unprotect Worksheet?

    The cells you want to protect should be Locked like this. There should be a square around the Locked option.

    If the cell is not locked, the menu looks like this:

    Then when you protect the sheet, it should look like this:
