title: Lost java keystore password
body: <p>I'm trying to update my Android app, but I forgot the keystore password.</p>
  <p>When I type <code>keytool -list -v -keystore keystore.jks</code>, I'm requested to enter a password, and when I hit enter for the empty password, I see</p>
  <pre><code>Alias name: xxxx
  Creation date: Jun 24, 2020
  Entry type: PrivateKeyEntry
  </code></pre>
  <p>for all other passwords I get <code>keystore password was incorrect</code></p>
  <p>Now I want to change my password, so I type <code>keytool -storepasswd -keystore keystore.jks</code>, and when I'm requested to enter a password - I hit enter for an empty password, and I get an incorrect password exception.</p>
  <p>I can not get it, if my password is empty, why I get an incorrect password error when I change it. If my password is not empty, why do I see the list of keys when I enter an empty pass?</p>
  <p>I do also have some private key, maybe it can help</p>
