Well, there's no way to change an exixting encrypted backup password.

If you're running iOS 11 or later, you can create a new encrypted backup (using a different password) of your device. See section "If you can’t remember the password for your encrypted backup" in this support article:--> About encrypted backups on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
