Lost keystore alias but have file and password used for alias

Question

recently I added a new alias to my keystore to sign my app.

Now I lost the new generated file with the alias, but remember the password and the alias name and have an older copy the file. Is there a way to recreate the alias using this things?

Answer 1

You can list the contents of your keystore with the command:

keytool -list -keystore <name of keystore file>

To do this, you will need to provide the keystore password (not the alias password). This will tell you the aliases in the file, which are self-contained, allowing you to sign. If you wish, you could also extract keys using other options / tools.

Answer 2

Open your key store (.jks) file with text editor. It will display binary form of data. The readable text in the first line is your key alias.

For example, your key alias in the following binary data is the key alias.

þíþí your key alias UYY_ 0‚þ0 +* ‚êa÷í–ØRö}ðžá䶈ùÎL\ô©2‘wå¥H¨V †¸®Àµ£ð×þ7—â;TÁÙcsª”ž˜4ÝÉ'AÀì,’„×S¼ðßÅ'€Õ¡ó‚˜ ö!y’Çåx|(woÁh4u-û†‚‡§Qȸ|ˆ³”ÜæûZŽ²a±O­´¢^À.ªbÅ“e†6 É秮j§˜y ößÿØ0Çd@ /Ã?®¦ìé¼/§Zq””Ê•©„=~Ùì¢>º}DàO<Ö¹SbpÎŒ@Ø„°^Í^e»>¾ü«nM( "Nbûh·2ðÁ0¯ç¿61êè“[.ÇzeYŽºXkuÄy*ôq¥FSs]:2“ì

Answer 4

The default alias in latest android studio version is "key0". You can try this if you haven't changed your alias value.
