I know that silly! I was jk. But srsly… Remembering your password can be easier than you think. Just go through a series of mental triggers to get it back. Also try different capitalization, it may help

Did you try the Shark TX-327? It’s a password hacker for personal use.(lol, seems legit)

But srsly. I’d suggest either getting a new one with a new email that you KNOW you’ll have access to, OR contact that person with that email, and talk to him/her
