Does anyone know how to recover it ?

You are logged in. If you can't remember it when you aren't logged in you can request a link to set a new one.

It is Impossible to actually recover your current password as it isn't stored anywhere. What happens when your password is validated is what you enter goes through a routine that creates a long number. That derived number is compared with what actually is stored and if they matched you either entered the correct password or something that amazingly came up with the same number. This is the standard way stuff is done these days so that hacking a sites database does NOT reveal passwords which may have been used elsewhere if you don't have unique passwords everywhere.

It will come back to you.  Probably a series of rude words.  I'm sure you will remember them.
