Yes, I can. All this is not easy, the process is time-consuming and long, but access can always be restored.
You have to keep the password and login in a safe enough place, like write it on a notepad or something, that is the only way to solve this in my opinion!

Don't memorize it because it is going to be very hard. Just keep it safe in a hidden place that you are the one who can access it. The only preventive measure you can do it to make two back ups. If you lost one, you still have another one and it should be written on a physical paper and not stored digitally.
FOrgetting your key is equavalent to losing all your stored money in that key. So it a lesson for us to make some copy of it for emergency purposes just like in the subject topic.
Forgetting your key then forget everything you have worked for cause you just sold yourself out to hackers thats why i do advise you have your private key printed out so you do not mix things up have them printed out and be safe thanks
This happened to me one time but I was able to retrieve it by logging into the email I used to create the bitcoin wallet.I tend to forget things that is why I always take down notes on my passwords.
You should always write down passwords. Memory is such, if you do not check and enter for a long time, then you can just forget it.

One should really take this into future consideration for we can not really tell what will happen. We should be cautious to things like these since we are holding such money. So bettee if you have a printed copy and place it in a safest place and try telling it to someone whom you trust.
If you have lost your key then it is lost forever. You cannot get it back. So remember to make 2-3 backups of your key and store someplace safe like its the most precious thing.
