Part 2: Recover WhatsApp Data from Google Drive
You can also retrieve WhatsApp data from Google Drive if you’ve previously backed it up. Typically, recovering WhatsApp messages from Google Drive would overwrite existing data. However, with FonesGo WhatsApp Recovery, you can directly access the Google Drive backup on your computer and selectively recover WhatsApp data, all without overwriting the current data on your device.
- Step 1 Open FonesGo WhatsApp Recovery and select “Recover WhatsApp data from Google Drive”.
- Step 2 Log into your Google account using your preferred method. The default login option is Cloud login.
- Step 3 Enter the phone number associated with your Google account to allow the program to access the backup.
- Step 4 After the backup is scanned, preview the retrieved WhatsApp data. Select the data you wish to recover and click ‘Recover’ to export it to your computer.
A verification code will be sent to your device. Verify this code on your device to grant the program access to your data.
Once you’ve successfully signed into your account, the program will display a list of WhatsApp backups. Select the one containing the data you need and click ‘Download’.
If end-to-end encryption is enabled on your WhatsApp account, you’ll need to enter the 64-digit encryption key to verify your Google account.
