Lost Keystore file of Android app

Question

I accidentally lost my Keystore file by which I used to sign my Android app for the update on Play Store

I am feel like crying.

What should I do now to generate the Keystore file of same SHA-1 and MD5 fingerprint?

Help needed badly

Unfortunately there is nothing you can do :-(

There is no way to get your keystore back or create a new one, even if you know the password. This would be a big security risk for if it were possible.

The only thing you can do is publish a new app, and instruct users to install that in place of the old one. Next time, have a backup !
