Do you have another Apple device that you are currently logged into with that exact same Apple ID? if so, then you can go to settings, your name at the top, password & security, recovery key, and reset the recovery key there.


If you are not currently logged in to an Apple device and you forget your recovery key then unfortunately there's no way to recover that Apple ID.
