I have my old message backup from my iphone. And I want to open these files, iChat.db, iChat.db-shm, iChat.db-wal on my new pc. Is there any way to do that. I opened them in SQLlitemanager, but it asks for an encryption code. Any help?

I use iExplorer but it costs $34.99. Well worth the price as it will extract messages, or whatever from your iPhone and export it to your PC as pdf files. Very handy. Of course I use the Mac version but the PC version works just as well.

According to the instructions, it should be able to read the message folder from your PC. What I would do is download their trial version first and test it to see if it works before spending any money on it.
I was also looking the best source to have knowledge about message history and then https://windowserrors.org/imessage-on-pc/ help me to have all the information. May it will helpful for you as well.
