How can I find the location of the Oracle password on HARD disk file

give us the location of the password file while we use the orapwd command to create a.

later, if you forget the location of the password file (incase it is not in the default location) then is there a way to find it or simply create a new password file?

Second, for oracle to use the password of the file we giv the remote_login_passwordfile = 'EXCLUSIVE' in the settings file. Wat tells oracle the location of the correct password file?

Thank you

The default location are dependent on the OS.
On Unix/Linus, it's under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
On Windows, it is under %ORACLE_HOME%/database

To change the location by default, nothing inside the database, but:
Under Unix/Linux, you must create a symbolic link to this file to the target location
Under Windows, you need to change the variable env (regedit) ORA_PWFILE and ORA_SID_PWFILE

So, you must check this setting for the location of real password file.
