forgot password for data backup encryption Last night , I backed up my IP14 (I am sure that I had never use password encryption feature) using iTunes on PC. Today I brought a new IP15 and connected to iTunes. When I try to restore , it said "Enter the password to unlock iPhone back up" I try every password that I can think , but it doesn't work. How anyone can suggest me what can I do? Thank you.

See Disable iOS backup encryption - Apple Community. In particular:

If you have forgotten the password, or were not aware that encryption had been enabled, consider that it might be any computer, Apple ID, Wi-Fi password or device PIN that you've used in the past, working from the assumption that you might have reused a common password that you were using when encryption was first activated. See About encrypted backups on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support for details.
