How to recover the iOS backup password?

Does anyone know of a solution to recover encrypted backup password? When I made my backup the password option was already active, it didn't ask to put one, I made the backup but then to recover it on the new cell phone it doesn't accept any password and not even the one in the keychain named as iOS backup.

The password will be whatever you set. There is no way to recover it.
