I have a tablet. I don't use it very often, but when i turned it on i come across the issue of my encrypted tablet. I cannot remember my password and i am worried of losing files. they have pictures that i cannot replace and memories that cannot be repeated. i don't want to lose them. is there a way i can regain my password without losing everything?

Hi @Breelyn202 and may I extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum 👋
The Security Protocols are in place for a very good reason to protect the tablet and it's contents and so are not meant to be circumvented.
