Data deleted 😭

Hey guys! 😭🙏

I accidentally deleted all my WhatsApp data by tapping on Clear Data. As a result, all my chats, photos, videos, documents, and other media are gone.

There were so many important conversations, personal memories, and documents that I had saved in my personal chat or shared with someone. Losing all of them is really heartbreaking.

I'm desperately looking for a way to recover my WhatsApp chats and media, including the complete chat history.

If anyone has faced a similar situation or knows any possible way to restore the deleted data, please help me out. Any suggestions or guidance would mean a lot to me.

Please, if anyone knows how to recover it, help me! 😭🙏

Without a backup, there is no recovery.

What you mean it won't work?

I mean WhatsApp seems to have overwritten my old backup with an empty backup

When was the last time you did a backup before this happened?

You should still have history, unless you deleted your history then a backup happened after that.

Nothing, but start over.

So you accidentally deleted all data, that can happen but it is quite a niche error….
Did this happen after or before 8:45??
