If you are sure that you didn't put a password when the first time you created the wallet then I think there are reasons why that wallet is asking for a password.
You might be generated a new wallet before but with a password and you just totally forgot it(Sometimes happen to me even I know that I didn't put a password.) or try to check and maybe you have two wallet.dat file on Bitcoin folder..

Or possible the password is not from the Bitcoin core?

Are you sure that you forgot the password? If it doesn't have a password or it's not encrypted you can able to open the wallet.dat file directly with notepad. So try to look for your wallet.dat file and open it with a notepad. If it's not encrypted you should see your addresses and private keys.

I'm pretty sure that I didn't set a password because also I don't want to remember or write anything. I thought letting the software and powering off will freeze the wallet. My friend has told me not to save the seed on any place expect the laptop to secure the crypto and I was pretty sure nothing will hurm the laptop or the ssd.

What is wallet.dat? I couldn't find through Google

I searched on bitcoin core folder and couldn't find that file.
