Is there a way to find the current console password that's been forgotten?

No way! But here is how you can enter a new password and continue working with the console:
* Close Abyss Web Server
* Open the abyss.conf file using Windows notepad (should be in the directory where you've installed Abyss Web Server).
* Locate the line which begins with Password
* Erase it
* Save the file and exit the notepad.
* Restart Abyss Web Server.
* Open the console. It will ask you to choose a new console password.

This doesn't work for me. I tryed going into abyss.conf through notepad and deleting the entry for password (it now says password "blank"). Then I went to show console and my browser popped up prompting me to insert a new password. Immediately afterward, a prompt pops up asking me for the password i just put in. I do and nothing happens and after a few times the browser window tells me i'm invalid. This is where I got stuck.

Please delete the whole password line and restart the server. This works without any problem if you follow EXACTLY our instructions.
