  I’m trying to set up the new WordPress account screen in Word but it is asking for an xmlrpc.php file which is supposed to be in the root folder of my site. Where do I find this?

  You can try going to Settings > Writing > Remote Publishing and check XML-RPC.

  However, I wouldn’t recommend using Word to publish to WordPress directly. WordPress’ post editor is much nicer!
