Recover it, and the chat history from the previously renamed file will be restored. During the installation, the program will suggest recovering the chat and contact backup copy which it has found, in the way that we described in the previous part of the article. When that happens, it is automatically removed from Drive and deleted. That is why, when you need to restore chats as they were on a certain date, find a file which contains this date in its name, and rename such file into msgstore.db.crypt12.Īfter that, delete WhatsApp from your device and reinstall it. In our case, this is a chat backup copy dated 8 November 2016. Msgstore-.1.db.crypt12 is a backup copy of the application’s chats for a certain date which is given in the file name. Step 2: Click the Settings icon in the top-right corner, choose Settings option from the drop-down list. Here you need to log into with the same Google account that you used to create WhatsApp backup. When you get there, sign in with your Google account. This is the file used for automatic chat and contact recovery after reinstallation of WhatsApp. To view old WhatsApp backup, you should open the web version of Google Drive on your computer.
Msgstore.db.crypt12 is the file with the latest WhatsApp chat backup. Then you can use any iTunes extractor to obtain the required.
If you go to that folder, you will find a file with the name msgstore.db.crypt12 there, and several more files with names like msgstore-.1.db.crypt12. First of all make sure to have a recent unencrypted iTunes backup, like explained here.
