Itunes password for backup

I just did a backup on my mac without the encryption switched on but when I tried to restore it it asked for a password. Help me please. I have never encrypted any of my back-ups.

Use iTunes’ menu to go to:

iTunes > Preferences > Devices


Find your iOS device in the list. Do you see a padlock icon on that row? That indicates the backup is encrypted.
