Yes, you can recover your password using a remote command.
To Recover Your Plesk Password on a Linux Server
- Using SSH, log in to your server with the User ID and Password that you created when you set up your virtual dedicated hosting account.
- At the command line, type
su root. - For your password, use the same password that you use with your User ID.
- Type
cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow.
