How to Get Deleted messages from Facebook messenger

How to Get Deleted messages from Facebook messenger: First we would like to tell the difference between messages and conversations. "Messages" refer to those specific lines of text (or photos, videos, links, etc.) that makes up a conversation between you and at least one other person, where as "conversations" are the entire records of messages between you and your recipient(s).

If you think you've deleted specific messages from a conversation, finding them may be time-consuming. Looking for conversations which you may have deleted are a lot easier. Well if you have deleted a message, its sad to announce to you that its not recoverable, but we will take you through a few steps just in case you had taken precautionary measures like archiving your messages, backing up your messages with your email or downloading your messages into your computer.

Steps to Recover your deleted Facebook chats.

Method 1

Search in other locations.

• Open your Facebook Messenger. Go to https://www.facebook.com/messages in your computer's web browser. This will automatically open your most recent Facebook message in Messenger if you're logged into Facebook but if you aren't logged into Facebook, you will be required to log in first. 
• Confirm if you actually deleted the conversation. Before you embark on this lost messages retrieving journey, go through your Facebook Messenger inbox and look for the conversation which you think you have deleted. In some cases it could be hidden and buried under newer ones. 
• You can also send a message to recipients requesting for a copy of the messages. If you deleted your side of the conversation (or specific messages), you can always ask the person (or people) on the other side of the message for screenshots copies of the conversation. As long as they haven't deleted the conversation/messages, you should be able to get it from them. Your message recipient would download a copy of the messages and you have the files sent to you. 
• Alternatively, you can search through your archived conversations. There could be a chance that you archived the conversation you're looking for rather than deleted it. To check for archived conversations, do the following: 
• Click the gear-shaped icon found in the top-left corner of Messenger. 
• Click Archived Threads in the drop-down menu. 
• Review any archived conversations to see if your supposed deleted message is included.

Note: Individual messages cannot be archived.

• Check if your conversations were sent to your email. If your account has all email notifications enabled, you should receive copies of messages in your inbox. You can check by doing the following: 
• Click the "Menu"  icon in the top-right side of the Facebook page. 
• Click Settings in the drop-down menu. 
• Click the Notifications tab. 
• Click Email to expand it. 
• Look to see if the "All notifications, except the ones you unsubscribe from" box in the "WHAT YOU'LL RECEIVE" section is checked. If it isn't then your messages weren't backed up to your email address. 
• Search through your email's "Trash" folder. If your conversations were backed up to your email address but you can't find them, try clicking the Trash folder and browsing for them there.

    
Most email providers delete emails after a certain amount of time (e.g., 30 days), so your messages still may permanently gone.

We hope these steps proved really helpful in restoring your deleted Facebook chats.
