@matt R,
I do not have the Blog on my server. I have it on my Local Computer. This is the response I get when attempting to change the Password:

This email was sent from your website “manesandtailsorganization.org” by the Wordfence plugin at Wednesday 11th of February 2016 at 05:48:56 PM
The Wordfence administrative URL for this site is: http://manesandtailsorganization.org/blog/wp-admin/admin.php?page=WordfenceSomeone tried to recover the password for user with email address: [email protected]

User location: West New York, United States
***********************************************************Since this blog is on my Laptop and I downloaded the THEME and added the Wordfence PlugIn after I selected the theme, I don’t have any files that I would recognize as ‘Program Files’. I have a Utility that allows me to search for all kinds of Data on this Laptop but it returns nothing.
Also, I am using the Windows 10 O/S which has destroyed BOTH of my web sites which are backed up on the Servers as well as Seagate External Drives. I am not able to delete the files which I know are still deep in the netherworld of my messed up HP Laptop. Microsoft is zero help and I know that I can get free Tech support from them over the phone until August of this year. They tried to sell me Tech support and I educated them…They had no idea about how to remove the Windows 7 O/S and they could not help me remove the corrupted web site files!
Does this O/S mess with your plugin? Also since the Blog is not installed the usual way it does not show up in the ‘Programs and Features’ menu.
I apologize for taking so long but I have the Flu and am bracing for dangerously cold weather this weekend.
I will check back tomorrow. I am in NJ.
Many thanks,
Callie
I have been reading this thread (which I did not intentionally hijack…) and it seems to me there is something in the WordFence PlugIn that is causing this problem? I tried several times again today and before I got the Password created by the Plugin itself I got a notice that ‘someone’ (me) at my IP Address attempted to change a password etc.
I do not have any other password creation Plugins on my WordPress blog so that is not the problem. I have mentioned that I have very limited experience with WordPress and am disappointed that I cannot get my Blog going.
Thanks so much,

Thanks to all. I am not an expert but this problem is very annoying. This Plugin is not detected by any of my Malware or Virus apps so everything I have on my Laptop comes back clean.
I do not have any files to send to you. The Malware app runs automatically and I only get a notification when something has been found. This has not happened since I installed WordFence. It is no where that I can find so I am not able to remove it. This PlugIn works too well!!
Thanks so much.
This Plugin blocks me every time I try to get into my WordPress site. I have posted elsewhere but have not have any luck getting a response.
Please help me get rid of this Plugin or tell me how to get around it!
Thanks so very much,
