Thanks for the pro tip!!
Thanks for your tip PeggyK👍🙏
Finally, someone talks about what to do with the data once it's extracted from the archive! I'd love to know more about scripts that can help me read all the JS files in the data folder.
This video was really useful thank you!! I only had a small problem where it didn't let me open the link to see my archive but all I needed to do was extract all the data to another folder and it worked
I'm glad you figured it out!
This is really helpful. If I was to download an archive of my dms right now, would they stay there after the other users accounts eventually get deleted? And would deleted messages show up?
Anything you have downloaded won't change unless there are links to things that are deleted. You can try opening your archive with your internet connection turned off and see what loads.
Hello! How are you? Thank you for this video!💜 I have a question:
When I try to download the Twitter Archive, the file is always corrupted. I already tried using another program, but it only partially recovered the folder. Do you know how I can fix it?
I don't know. Twitter seems to be having some trouble lately, so it may just require you to try another time.
Hi! Great vid, can I see in my archive files links to vids I played on my timeline? Im looking for a specific vid but searching gave zero results... I remember exact day when I watched it.
I'm not sure, but I suspect not. But there's no reason not to give it a try. If you don't want the archive in the end, you can trash it.
Is there any way to download the pictures and videos from the extracted archive? thanks.
Not that I know of. There may be a third party tool to to do that.
i am struggling so hard to understand what im doing wrong D:
when i open "my archive" as the chrome html file they offer all i ever get is "You need to unzip your entire archive, not just individual folders, in order to view them here. If you keep experiencing errors, please fill out this form."
on any account i try to get archived tweets for. what am i missing??
Try unzipping the archive or archives, and move the files to your hard drive from the opened zip file. You should be able to drag them out and a copy will be made. Then open the copy that you moved to your hard drive. Hopefully that will work.
How can I find old deleted messages ? When I go in « direct messages » there is not the conversation I’m looking for
It is likely that any messages that were deleted to are not going to be available in the archive.
My archive file has this weird extension: ".crdownload"...not a zip file. Any ideas about why this is? I'm on a Mac. Thanks!
Assuming you're using Chrome, I believe that means that the download is still in progress. Once fully downloaded it will show the correct file type. Try going to chrome://downloads in the Chrome address bar to see download progress.
Thanks!
Hello, does it show the videos that you have viewed.
I don't believe the archiving includes your viewing history. It would include any videos that you uploaded.
Can I not view the accounts names that I've searched and which have disappeared from recent??? Please kindly answer if there's a way
I don't know if there's any way to access that history in your account.
Does it show accounts/pages you've visited before?
No, the Twitter backup does not show the pages or profiles you visited.
Hello i like to sak one question . can we view the person we clicked like who we visited their twitter profile ? Btw Great video❤❤
I'm glad you like it :) . I don't believe the data includes profiles you visited.
@@PeggyKTC Thank u so much a new sub for you
@ezzzbedwars4710 ♥️
Hello, I downloaded it to my MacBook Air. When I try to open download it says "unable to expand-it is unsupported format". Help??
What is the file extension you see on the download? I think it should be a zip file, then it should be. Zip
@@PeggyKTC It is a zip file
As far as I know, a Mac should be able to open a zip file, but I don't have a Mac to test it myself.
@PeggyKTC Unfortunately I think because it is a laptop it doesn't work.
It should work better on a laptop then a mobile device. You might try to find Mac support to see if they can provide suggestions.
can it give data of deleted chat ?
No, deletion is permanent, and you won't be able to recover it.
When you do this can you see all your history you searched up
And deleted
My archive includes my saved searches (search terms), but not my full search history. I don't believe it includes anything I deleted before creating the archive.
