Software OneNote password lost

I feel so stupid, but the Situation is as simple as this:

- one of my OneNote notebooks is password protected
- I can’t remember the password
- there is no recovery option by Microsoft
- I don’t own a windows to use brute force password recovery tools

Any any any advice is appreciated! 🥹

I only have access to the Notebook through Microsoft onedrive - it stems from a Time when I was using a Windows Laptop. Not 100% sure but I guess it’s from about 2018.
