The data would have been overwritten when you changed it. The only thing left is to find an old saved file.

Why do you need the old password?

In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.
