Telegram backup is so important issue for those who are worried about losing their information.
For example, you want to save your chat detail in the word file or export it to another format on the memory.
Telegram users can share messages, images, videos, and documents encrypted.
It is officially available for Android, Windows Phone, and iOS, and users can exchange messages, photos, videos, and files for up to 1.5 GB.
One of the problems with Telegram messenger is you are unable to create a backup from chats! but don’t worry every problem has a solution.
Sometimes you may mistakenly delete chat of telegram messages or lose them for other reasons.
When this happens you will see how it is difficult to backup your chats again or maybe you forget at all.
Because Telegram has no backup option and you have to do it manually.
I am Jack Ricle from Telegram Adviser team and in this article, I want to show how you can create a backup file from all your chat data.
Stay with me until the end, and send us your comment to provide better services.
There Are 3 Ways To Create a Full Backup From Telegram:
The easiest way to create a backup of Telegram chat history is to copy and paste your message.
In this way, you should open your Telegram account on desktop (windows) and then select all (CTRL+A) and then press (CTRL+C) to copy your all messages in the clipboard and then paste them into a word file.
Now you can print it. Notice that in this method maybe you will have trouble because maybe your chat history is so long! in this case, use another way to create a backup and export your chat history.
In the latest version of Telegram that was released for desktop (windows), you can create a full backup from your Telegram account easily with many options.
Users that have an older version of Telegram for PC will not see this option in the setting so at first you must update the app or download the latest version.
Follow these steps: Setting –> Advanced –> Export Telegram Data
When you tap on the “Export Telegram Data” button, a new window will appear on your screen.
You can customize the Telegram backup file. let’s know these options.
Account Information: Your profile information such as account name, ID, profile picture, number, and … will export too.
Contacts List: This is the option used for backup Telegram contacts (phone numbers and contacts name).
Personal Chats: will save all your private chats to the file.
Bot Chats: All messages that you sent to Telegram robots will also be stored in the backup file.

If you use google chrome on your computer, install the “Save Telegram Chat History” extension and create your Telegram backup easily.
For this purpose you need to use Telegram web and it doesn’t work on phones or desktop versions.
1- Install the “Save Telegram Chat History” chrome extension to the browser.
2- Login to Telegram web then Go to your target chat and click on the extension icon, it’s at the top of your browser.
3- In this section click the “All” button to collect all your chat history.
If you can’t see whole the chat messages in the field, go to chat windows and scroll up to the end and then do this step again. at the end click on the save icon.
Almost done! you just need to save the backup file (.txt). now you can open your file with WordPad or notepad.
Media files (picture, video, sticker, and GIF) won’t be stored in this backup and you should send media to save messages.
Unlike WhatsApp, Telegram doesn’t allow users to backup chats to a cloud service.
That’s because Telegram is a cloud platform in itself that saves all your data (chats, photos, videos, etc.) in its own cloud servers automatically. Therefore, your chats will not be deleted if you change phones without making a backup. But, if you still want to save the backup offline or send your chat history to someone, you can export Telegram chats. Let’s check both methods to do so quickly and efficiently.
Note: You can export Telegram chat history only from the Telegram desktop app and not from its mobile apps.
You can use this method to export chat history from individual Telegram chats, groups, or channels as shown below:
Similarly, you can export a group chat or a channel history.
Tip: Also learn how to create or manage Telegram channels.
Telegram allows you to export your entire Telegram data. That includes messaging history from all chat threads (personal chats, groups, channels), photos, videos, account information, stickers, animated files, active sessions, and more. You can use this method to create an offline backup of your Telegram account data.
Note: You can either export all chats or a single chat (using the first method). You can’t select some chats.
The exported files will be saved in the “Downloads” folder of your PC.
Telegram doesn’t offer a native way to export chats to PDF. You can, however, use the following two workarounds to convert Telegram chats to PDF.
Then, open the “Telegram Desktop” folder on your computer to see the exported files. Double-click on the “message.html” file to open it in the default browser.You can also use online tools to convert HTML files into PDF. Some of the tools that you can try are:
Simply upload the “message.html” file in one of these websites and they will automatically do the rest of the work of converting it into PDF.
Unfortunately, the answer to this question is no.
Secret chats can’t be exported as these are available on mobile devices only.
This is not done automatically like in the case of WhatsApp. You must first export Telegram chats to your computer and then upload the files manually to Google Drive.

If you store important information in the cloud, value letters, posts on social networks and correspondence in chats, a copy of this data may come in handy.
Telegram data. You can download correspondence in this messenger only through the Telegram Desktop application for Windows, macOS or Linux.
After installation, Telegram Desktop will ask you to scan a QR code through the Telegram app on your smartphone. You can download to your computer both the entire archive of correspondence and individual chats.

Whatsapp data. In the messenger, you can request information about account settings or save chats.
Copies of chats are automatically saved to your smartphone every day. But you can store correspondence in the cloud or on your computer:
You can save all correspondence in "Settings" → "Chats" → "Backup" → "Create a copy". In the same place, select automatic saving and its frequency; | This is what backup settings look like on Android phones | To save personal information in the "Account" section in the settings, click "Request account details" | Click "Request Report" and wait 3-4 days |
Viber data. To save a copy to the cloud, go to "More" → "Settings" → "Account" → "Backup". It can be run manually or on a schedule.
You can save a copy of your account data in the section "Privacy" → "Personal data" → "Data request". The application will tell you that it will take up to 14 days for them, but I received the file in seven minutes.
If you want to save messages on your computer and not depend on the Internet, you will have to install the old version of Viber - no higher than 10.5. It still had such an opportunity in the "Settings" menu → "Calls and messages" → "Send message history". For example, you can send an archive via email. But do not forget to make a cloud backup first - you will have to restore it in the installed old version of Viber.
The old version of the messenger may not be installed on your smartphone. If saving the archive outside the cloud is critical, find an old phone and install the application on it. For example, I managed to install version 10.5 on Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro.
You can find an old Viber by searching for Viber 10.5 apk in a search engine, but download app installers from unofficial resources at your own risk - they may be broken or infected.

Be careful: Google Drive can contain hundreds of gigabytes of data, and it may take several days to save. In order not to download all data from "Disk" to your computer, click in the "Disk" section the "All Disk data selected" button and cancel the download of unnecessary folders. The same with the video: in the "YouTube and YouTube Music" block, click the "All YouTube data selected" button and uncheck the "Video" line.
From the extensive list of data, select the required dataAfter selecting the desired data types in the account, click "Next". Now choose where to download the data: to a computer or to one of the cloud storages - to Disk, Dropbox, OneDrive, Box. I recommend keeping one copy on your computer or external drive, and the second can be added to the cloud.
How often to save - once or every two months - is up to you. The archive can be packed in ZIP or TGZ, the first option can be opened on any computer and smartphone, this is the best solution.
You can also split the archive into parts of 1, 2, 4, 10 or 50 GB. This will not affect the speed of creating an archive. For example, my data archive took up about 30 GB, excluding YouTube videos.
When the file export is complete, you will receive an email from Google Archiver with the subject "Your Google Account data is ready to download." You can immediately download them using the button in the email or click "Go to export management" and click the "Download" button there. Archives are available for a week after receiving the letter, after which you will have to create them again.
Data is backed up on Apple devices every day. If you save manually, you will have to do this separately for each service. Here's how to save information across different Apple services.
Back up or make copies of data stored in iCloud - Apple
On your computer to download photos and videos from iCloud, go to the Photos section, select the files you want, and click Upload.
On an iPhone or iPad, the path will be: “Photos” → select files → “More” → “Upload”. Videos and photos will be saved to the archive. To save any other files, also select them and click "Download".
To save contacts from the iCloud site, open Contacts, go to All Contacts, click any contact. Then click "Edit" → "Select All" and save the contacts to your computer's memory.

Yandex services. In the Yandex profile settings, upload data from Zen, Market, and a search engine. But without letters, files from the "Disk" and calendar events - they will have to be dealt with separately.
To download the information, follow the link "Your data on Yandex" and select the required account if you have several. After that, you can immediately click the "Download data" button - and in a few hours you will receive an email with a link to download information from various Yandex services. Their list will open if you click the inscription "What data will be in the archive."
In Yandex, you can automatically save personal data from the browser, entries in Zen, the history of purchases on the MarketAfter that, you can export letters according to the instructions in each mail program. For example, in Microsoft Outlook do this:
You can only download data from Yandex Disk individually: go to Disk, select a folder or file, and click Download. If the folder weighs more than 5 GB or it contains more than 500 files, you will have to install the Yandex Disk program on your computer to download.
