Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/absadiki/whatsapp-msgstore-viewer/issues/18

file is not a database
Try to choose another version from the Database version drop-down menu.
If no version works, probably the database is encrypted or you have an updated version of WhatsApp and your database schema is not supported yet.
Submit an issue on our Github page to help you add support to your database schema.

@absadiki commented on GitHub (Jun 19, 2025):

If your database was decrypted successfully, it seems your msgstore schema isn’t supported yet.

I’ve made it easy to add new schemas to the project. Please take a look at abstract_db.py then create a new folder and extend that class by implementing the required methods—similar to what was done for v1 for example.
The app will load all supported versions at runtime.

You can also use AI to generate the schema for you. Please see #17
