title: Generating Signed APK with no key store password
body: <p>I got a half completed project 7 months ago that was made with <code>Android Studio</code> and they had also generated a singed <code>APK</code> and put it on the Google Play Store.</p>
  
  <p>Now that I have finally finished the project I would like to place it on the Google Play Store or update the project that they had put in the <code>Play Store</code>.</p>
  
  <p>They gave me their Google Play Store username and password so I can access the app but they forgot to save the <code>key store password</code> they signed the APK with.</p>
  
  <p>Now I have found myself in a position where I cannot generate a signed APK to put it the Play Store nor can I update the existing app.</p>
  
  <p>If possible I would like to update the existing version but if not then putting a new app on the store will suffice.</p>
  
  <p>What can or what should I do in this situation?</p>
