- Dec 29, 2021 · 3 years agoOne option is to use a wallet that supports password recovery. Some wallets allow you to set up a recovery phrase or a secondary password that can be used to reset your main password. Make sure to choose a reputable wallet that has strong security measures in place.

Before doing this, make sure to securely back up your private keys or recovery phrase. Once you have a new wallet set up, you can transfer your funds from the old wallet to the new one.
