I searched for ModifyEpub plugin but was not able to locate that.
Did you click on OK after Save settings? The Save settings buttons saves your selected options for the next time you use Polish books, it does not make any changes to the books. The OK button should start the Polish books job and show a results screen afterwards.

As for ModifyEpub, click on the arrow beside calibre's Preference icon. On the drop down menu, select Get plugins to enhance calibre. Select All in the filter list of plugins and start typing modifyepub in the filter by name box. See the attached image.

If you are using calibre's built in save to disk functionality, as far as I am aware, the metadata should be updated in the created copy of the epub.
