I set my ssh key a password. And whenever I do push or pull it asks me for that password, even in android studio. By mistake I press the "save password" in android studio and I can't enter the password anymore.

Is there any way to delete that? Or make android studio forget the password?

Check first, as mentioned here, what kind of SSH client your Android Studio is using: internal or system?

Switch to system, and check if your have an ssh-agent running: you can clear its content.
That should force Android Studio to ask for your private key passphrase again.

Although the question title doesn't specifically mention SSH, though the body of question does, I came to this question looking for non SSH password removal, so perhaps this'll be helpful for both parties.

For Gitlab (& I assume Git) if you tick the remember box when entering your password for Android Studio Dolphin 2021.3.1 and you don't want it to be stored subsequently goto:

Settings > Appearance & Behaviour > System Settings > Passwords and then click the Do not save, forget passwords after restart button.

enter image description here

You then have to close and restart Android Studio, but then your password will be 'forgotten' Obviously unclick the afore-mentioned button to have the behaviour reversed
