I have two access keys in IAM: One active and one inactive.
Since I have forgotten my Secret Access Key I want to create a new set of credentials, but the Create access key button is greyed out. I don't know how to make new or how to retrieve my Secret Access Key.

Each IAM user can have up to two access keys. Having two access keys (instead of one), increases the risk of unauthorized access and compromise of credentials.
If "Create New Access Key" is greyed out, it means you already have the maximum of 2 access keys. You will need to click "Delete" next to an existing access key so that you have at most one access key.
You can assign up to two access keys per user (root user or IAM user). Having two access keys is useful when you want to rotate them.
You need to delete, one of the existing keys, since IAM allows only two access keys maximum for IAM user.
