This is what gives me the error, sorry for omitting it previously:

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'Password';

You probably want to take a look at https://mariadb.com/kb/en/alter-user/
which suggests:

CREATE USER 'bob'@'localhost'
  IDENTIFIED VIA mysql_native_password USING PASSWORD('pwd')
  OR unix_socket;

and

ALTER USER 'bob'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED VIA mysql_native_password
  USING PASSWORD('pwd2');

There are a bunch of variant syntaxes for when you're supplying the password 
hash instead of the plaintext password.

As an aside, I've found "IDENTIFIED VIA unix_socket" to be the way to go for 
local access when the client is on the same machine as the database.
