Before deleting WhatsApp, I took an iCloud backup. When I reinstalled WhatsApp, it took another backup of the version with zero messages. Now I can only see the version with zero backup. How can I retrieve my old messages? Please help.

contact Whatsapp support.

It must have done a backup of the empty chat situation. Did you leave it overnight with an empty app and a daily backup setting?

If that is the case the good backup was obliterated.
