    The whole reason for using KeePass is that there is no known way to use brute force to recover your password.

    This is deliberate and by design - KeePass is a secure password manager and if you could recover your master password then so could an attacker.

    Are you actually using KeePass? If you are using face ID to open your database you must be using a plugin or using some port of KeePass on a mobile device. I am not aware of any face id method of opening KeePass on a PC.

    If you can open the database using face ID then you should be able to change the password or export the data as plain text.

    cheers, Paul
