Thanks for the reply.
As I recall, back then there were problems with the MIST wallet and I went to the Parity wallet. Unknown to me, at the time, the parity wallet must have picked up the Mist one and somewhere along the line the MIST one got encrypted. I have no password for it in my notes.
Thought maybe I could find the earlier unencrypted one but so far no luck.
Therefore, there does not seem to be any road forward. I pick passwords at random so brute force is out.

You have huge chance to recover those Ethereum in your Parity old wallet.
As long as you have Parity's local files.
You can check here: FAQ: Backup, Restore, and Files
As long as you have the keystroke file and password, you can still recover your wallet.
Regarding with Mist, you can check it here also: How to actually back up

Going back to 2016, I have some backups of Parity and Mist.
There may be some ETH left in them.
Can I get them workable again?
