Recover WhatsApp backup if you forgot encrypted password

Hi,

I am using iphone12. I had WhatsApp back using encrypted password which I have forgot. I have reinstalled my WhatsApp but I am unable to restore it without password.

Can someone pls help to recover the WhatsApp chat backup and tell me how many attempts are possible to make.

It has some important chats which need to be restored.

Thanks in advance

iPhone 12, iOS 17

WhatsApp is the only one that will be able to help if they are able to do it at all. This is what they say about your key:

You can’t access your encrypted backup if you don’t have your encryption key or password.
You can’t restore your backup if you lose access to your WhatsApp account and forget your password or encryption key. WhatsApp can’t send you a copy of your password or encryption key, reset your password or encryption key, or restore your backup for you.

There is nothing Apple can do to resolve a problem with WhatsApp.
