You have an old wallet in Electrum and you are trying to send the fund to your blokchain wallet but you don't remember the password you set four years ago? Am I right?

The password you need to send your bitcoin is the password you used for opening your wallet.
How did you open that old wallet if you don't know the password?

Is there something I don't understand?

Try hashcat and you could brute force the password if you have any ideas what it might be.

You can ask questions how to run it here https://hashcat.net/forum/
Or download latest version here https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat

Good luck

You mean you forgot the password to the electrum wallet? Do you have any idea about your password?

You may try to extract password hash using script from John The Ripper project:
https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper/blob/bleeding-jumbo/run/electrum2john.py

Then probably hashcat could help.
If you know the probable format of password (word, special characters, number), there are some chances...

I think that in this particular case the only way to unlock your wallet is to be able to reveal the password. The program you used to encrypt the seed actually protects your seed, and you need a password to get to the seed. I can't be 100% if I'm right, but I base my conclusion on this post How to manually decrypt Electrums encrypted seed and xprv from wallet file.

You will probably get a much better answer from members who are more technically savvy, and in the meantime I advise you to try to find the password.
