I have file sharing in Windows 10 (version-1909) working well with a password. I set the password sometime ago when there was a UserGroup option, by changing the UserGroup password. Now in recent version there is no UserGroup.Now I want to change the password for file sharing. How do I do it?

The password is the same as your Windows password unless you shared a folder with a different password. If you wish to have a different password, right click on the folder or drive and go to security and sharing. Set a password on the drive or folder once sharing is on. Then users will need the drive or folder particulars and the password.
If you need to change your Windows user password, go to Start, Settings, Accounts and change the password there.
Please see the screen shot below. Also look for other users on your system where you assigned names and passwords.
Also right click on Computer (This PC) and select Manage. Users and Groups remain there.
