   When I installed my newest plugin Xcloner backup, it installed fine, but with its own admin account with default password "admin" and the strong message to change this ASAP.

   So I tried that first thing, but my attempts to save the new password resulted in an ERROR message that sounded too painful to pursue (referencing a missing or misconfigured file...). Sorry, but I gave up on this one immediately (and did not save the message either!)

   Most probably you've run into a permission issue which is pretty easy to fix, apply 777 on the wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/cloner.config.php file...

   That MAY have been the problem. However I deactivated, then uninstalled XCloner to try another backup plugin, which does not do what I need.

   So I reinstalled Xcloner, activated it, and went directly to Settings to change the admin password. But this fails, with the error:
   Not Acceptable
   An appropriate representation of the requested resource /interim/wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/index2.php could not be found on this server.
   Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

   Via file manager, said file exists... and is writable by owner & group, though not by world.

   Did NOT see this error on the first install, and I was able to change the admin password.

   Frustrating!
