This is the regular ACP login, which uses the same password as the front-end.

Sorry

/admin

This one - https://pasteboard.co/PbUnHJhmA1Uc.png

It's not my admin username and password.

i know the username and password created when installing the forum, but I don't know how to change it.

Upper right ACP corner AFTER login - there are options for that.

You can change that at the .htaccess file.

Or remove htaccess and htpwd (something like this) from an admin/ directory and create them again if you want to keep your second ACP password.

On the .htaccess file, there is no username or password parameters to change

Look at the .htpasswd file. That info should be stored in there.

Ok,

The username is plaintext in this file, but the password is encrypted.

Changing the password to plain text locked me out, so i revert it in order to logon beck

To create a new password, you can either generate it through the follow link:

http://www.htaccesstools.com/htpasswd-generator/

or through the command line. Either method will work.
