Under iCloud storage this is what the message reads "If you want to stop using Messages in iCloud and recover your iCloud storage, you can disable it on all your devices. You then have 30 days to download your messages." Does anyone have the steps on how to download complete message threads?

Trying to download messages from the cloud onto my computer. I do not see Messages in iCloud or seem to have the ability to read Message while at my iCloud.com. I do back Messages up to iCloud.

Messages are end-to-end encrypted. You cannot view messages in iCloud, just on your device(s).

Troubleshooting Text Messages:
A. Was iCloud Messages Set Up?:
If you have Messages enabled with iCloud, then check and see if they reside in there, using another device associated to iCloud, that has not been associated to the internet yet. That way, nothing will sync.
