lost itunes backup password

I want to backup my iPhone 6 to a PC. I cannot remember the password I used to encrypt. I am happy to delete the old backup and do a new backup but don't know how to do this without the old password

See Disable iOS backup encryption - Apple Community. You can backup to iCloud and then restore to remove the encryption password from a future backup to iTunes.
