I have a msgstore.db.crypt12 from 2021 and when I use it no data is shown except for calls
it is not a problem with the decryption, as I also used the decrypted version of the database and it is also not working
when using other whatsapp viewers the messages can be read
@absadiki commented on GitHub (May 31, 2025):
@RDGR8, that's true. If you can see the calls, then it's not an encryption problem. I believe it's most likely due to the database schema in that old version.
I made it easier to add support for new schemas to the project. Please take a look at abstract_db.py then create a new folder and extend this class with the implementation of the methods, similar to what was done in v1 for example.
The app will load existing versions at runtime.
Please give it a try and let me know if you encounter any issues.
