You need to enter the password for security reasons as anyone could open that page and generate the recovery key. If you do not remember the password then you are out of luck and you should have generated the recovery key when you still remembered the password as now you are too late.

You wrote: create a new recovery key Did you ever generate a recovery key in the past?
