I forgot my keychain password

I forgot my keychain password. I am trying to export passwords to a file that I can copy onto a flash drive and move to Safari on another mc. How do I recover the password?

The password is not stored anywhere in any readable form, so there is nothing that can be retrieved. If you need to update your keychain password on Mac - Apple Support may help you to remember what it is.

"If you don’t remember your previous user password, you need to reset your default keychain."
