Itunes Backup Password Recovery
Recently, I performed a factory reset on my iPhone, anticipating a straightforward restoration from my iTunes backup. However, I was confronted with an unexpected hurdle: the backup is password-protected, and I have unfortunately forgotten the password. This password was set several years ago, and its necessity slipped my mind over time.
This situation has left me unable to access my data, which is crucial for both my personal and professional use.
Given that I have access to all my data for proof - itunes credentials, proof of purchase, etc - is there a way to recover the password used to encrypt previous backups?
The backup was done with iTunes on Windows.
Thanks!
