Open the project in Android Studio. On the left pane select Project option to display all the files and folders in your project. You'll find the .gradle folder, inside that you'll find the folder with your gradle number, mine was 5.1.1

Inside that folder, you'll find the executionHistory Folder, and inside that executionHistory.bin file. Open that file in Android Studio itself.

Now search(Ctrl+f) in that file for signingConfig.keyPassword and you'll find more than 1 matches. GO THROUGH ALL OF THEM and you'll find your password after one of these matches.

PS - I'm using Android Studio 3.5 Folder Tree for my project

Good Luck
