Hello fellow Apple fans =)
I am having this weird issue where I can change the encryption passcode for both my iPad and iPhone backups but I am unable to remove the encryption from the backup.
Does anybody have a similar issue and has a fix for me?
Thanks y'all,
Stephanie
Sorry for my hasty reply: you are right (I just tried it myself), you need the former password to even switch off the encryption for future backups.
I'm not qualified enough at this point to give you any direction. So I would recommend that you contact Apple Support: Get Support

A few ideas:
I don't think you can remove the password on an encrypted backup. Yet, you can turn the encryption off for any future backups.
Well that's the problem, I can't turn it off/remove it/get rid of it....
Turning off backup encryption
