There is no way to change the password to an existing note, as the password is not saved anywhere. The password is used as the data decryption key, meaning the only way the data can be decrypted and accessed is with the password. You’re going to have to keep guessing, if you don’t remember the password, and if the hint was not specified or its reminder proved inadequate.
