Advice on viewing encrypted WhatsApp files/ messages

Locked

Tags: Community, Mobile, Security

Could you please give me some advice on my issue. I have backup crypt14 files I have saved to my PC and I’m trying to view them on WhatsApp viewer. I am asked to upload the key file which I do not have, (however I have a screenshot of the 60 digit encryption key of a particular chat in WhatsApp). Are there any other decryption tools I can use to view my backups without the key file?

Thanks

So far.

No. There are claims of such things but if you ask over on Reddit you are told these are often scams to part you with money for some bogus app.
