Locked notes

Good evening, unfortunately I have forgotten my notes password and now I can’t log in even though Touch ID was available few days ago and I was unlocking my notes using my fingerprint. Now for no reason Touch ID is not an option for unlocking my notes( without me removing it) and now my notes are locked and I cannot have access to them even though I did nothing wrong ! This is ridiculous please help me fix this.

Sorry, but there is no workaround or recovery.


If a notes password is forgotten, the note will remain inaccesible.
