IPhone backup file on Windows Computer
I updated my phone to IOS7 manually through my windows laptop and it backed it up automatically to iTunes. When I went to restore the backup, it asked for a password and I tried every password ever and won't work. I don't remember ever even setting one up originally. I googled all of this and found a program that will recover my password so I can restore it. I NEED the backup. Well I can't even find the file on my computer with the backup. It's under my preferences on iTunes though. I found it on my browser though. I copied and pasted the address to my computer and it says no files found.
Many unfortunate users also suffered the same problem as you. It seems that iTunes set the password for the backup automatically. Indeed, if you have set up a profile on your iPhone (like I did), you will need to go into your phone's settings, go to "General", and then tap on "profile". Remove the profile, otherwise iTunes forces encrypted backups.
Now you can try your frequently used passwords to meet your chance. If it is to no avail, you may need an professional tool - iPhone backup unlocker. You can get it on google.
A ll the best!

Hi, yesterday I had to reset my phone (IPhone 8 plus) to factory default and restore it to its last backup (April 15th). I also have an iPad mini, which everything is Synced. I got everything back on my phone (up to date) except my text messages. I'm not able to access my computer right now and have read you can get them back my backing up you messages to ICloud. Is there anything I can do to get them back on my phone (they are still on my iPad mini), without using my Mac?
