This tutorial shows you how to read WhatsApp messages on PC without the Crypt Key. You can read WhatsApp messages on PC for WhatsApp Database from Crypt6 to Crypt 12.
STEP 1
Put your WhatsApp Database file you want to read right on your default SD Card; that is, where WhatsApp stores your Database file primarily.

STEP 2
CLICK HERE to download WhatsApp Tri-Crypt . It’s free of charge. When you are done installing the app, run it and you should find an interface similar to the one below.
Touch/Click on the ‘Decrypt WhatsApp Database’. The app will automatically detect your database file on your SD Card and then decrypt it. The .crypt6 , .crypt7 or .crypt12 files will be decrypted to the form .db
NOTE: If you are using Android versions 4.4 and above, you don’t need to root your device, if not, then your device needs to be rooted.

What it means Put your WhatsApp Database file you want to read right on your default SD Card; plz explain, I have watched video tutorial but I unable to understand
Most phones have both internal and external storage; you have to find out which one is your default storage card.Mostly, where your downloads are stored.
I have lost my phone, so I got a new one. I have a backup of my WhatsApp folder on my computer. So if I copy the backup on to the SD Card of the new phone, with a totally different number on a totally different phone. Will this WhatsApp TriCrypt still be able to decrypt the files for me?
I have tried that once, it did work, but you can give it a try and see what happens
I just ahve another question. If I do not have whatsapp installed at all. Would it still work. Or in other words since I cannot use my old number that I do not have, if I use a new number and install it, would it still work?
Yes, it will work but you have to switch the old number to the new number and make sure the database is on your SD card
