There is nothing that you can do. You cannot recover that password, and it is contained in the iPhone backup, so you will not be able to use that backup. You either remember the password, or you will have to delete the backup from iTunes and restore your iPhone to new. Otherwise you will not be able to create another backup that is not encrypted. See this support document about encrypted backups. About encrypted backups in iTunes - Apple Support
