The data, notes, notebooks, etc. does not need to be reencrypted. If a master password is forgotten it's not possible to recover it. **It is however possible to reset it**. In that case, all associated keys are disabled, and the public-private key pair is regenerated. In practice it means that any content that was encrypted with the forgotten password can no longer be decrypted.
