Hi all, somedays ago I've post my issue here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82894387&postcount=117

but I think it isn't the right place so I put here my request hoping to have best luck and get your reply ;)

Thank you in advance!

Below my post:

Goodmorning everyone.

I have a problem while using the tutorial :(

I have a Huawei Nova 5T with android in version 10 that broke the display a few weeks ago.

Now I have replaced the display and so I have back again the access to the smartphone and I would like to transfer and merge the whatsapp db on that phone with the other one on the phone that I'm since I broke the Nova .

Well ... I downloaded and installed WhatsApp-Key (version 4.7) on my laptop with Windows 10 home. I launched it and I've connected the old phone that but the program gave me this error:
