End-to-end encryption (E2EE) is a security feature that ensures that only the sender and recipient of a message can read it. WhatsApp has E2EE enabled by default, but there may be some cases where you need to disable it. For example, if you need to access your WhatsApp messages on a new device and you don’t have your old device, you may need to disable E2EE in order to restore your messages.
Disabling E2EE is a relatively simple process. However, it’s important to note that once you disable E2EE, your messages will no longer be protected by end-to-end encryption. This means that anyone who has access to your device will be able to read your WhatsApp messages.
