Undo Disable and Delete not working

When i go to icloud>manage account storage> messages>undo disable and delete, it just says "turning on" and doesnt do anything. I thought it was just taking a while but it says "turning on" for hours and doesnt do anything. My niece messed with my settings by accident but I cannot undo disable and delete. I dont want my messages that I have stored in icloud to delete after 30 days.

For context i have 4.85GB of imessage data and 374.4mb out of 5gb of storage used on my icloud. My phone is updated and I have tried restarting it. please help!!!

iPhone 11

Troubleshooting Undo Disable and Delete:


Force Close This:


Close All Apps:

An app may not be responding. So, close all apps. Hold you finger down on the Bottom-left cornet. As you swipe to the top-left corner, the apps will pop up. Then, close all of these open apps, by sweeping up quickly for all apps.
