My question is about the way Whatsapp saves the conversation in the time we chat. If I close Whatsapp and open it, my last conversations and messages that are not yet backed up, appear. Even if I send a letter (one character) and close the application and then open it, I will find this letter. Where does Whatsapp save these conversations? I'm not talking about the DB backups.

If you're talking about the unofficial PC version of Whatsapp (application that has been discontinued) the conversations are saved in (C:) > Users > Your computer name > AppData > Roaming > Whatsapp folder. If you're referring to the Android utility, the messages and conversations are saved in the WhatsApp folder from your SD card or phone memory. They are saved as a msgstore.db.crypt7 file.
