How to convert crypt7 to crypt5 file

It doesn't seem to be possible to directly convert CRYPT7 archives to CRYPT5 format and both of these files are obsolete in latest Whatsapp (uses .crypt 12 files). Nonethless the WhatsApp Tri-Crypt program (now known as Omni-Crypt) can be run as background process and converted all newer CRYPT7, CRYPT6 and CRYPT 5 archives to the original legacy CRYPT format, which then can be easily extracted with one of the available tools like WhatApp Xtract.

Simply put, it is impossible to convert CRYPT7 to CRYPT5 directly.
Thus, there is no so-called crypt7 to crypt5 converter or a free online .crypt7 to .crypt5 converter to be found.
