Just installed version 5 on Windows 10 and when attempting to go to settings am challenged with a password request. I tried the default password for version 5 as per instructions and it doesn't work. 
How do I reset the password?

Thanks

The default login is admin/password, unless you've changed it.

You can reset it back to those at any time by editing config.xml, and setting the following in the <WebServer> section
<Username>admin</Username>
<Password>5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99</Password>

Thank you! Turns out I had set a password , had copied config.xml to the version 5 folder from version 4, and so 5 was expecting my old password!
