I've been a Facebook member since 2009 and I never really took any time to wander around my facebook account and when I did I discovered that you could download your archived facebook data including photos, posts, about me, messages, and a whole lot more! including friends you've unfriended!

Now here's a step - by - step guide on how to download your facebook data.

1. Login to your facebook account.

2. Look for the home button on the upper right hand side of your screen and click the arrow which will show a dropdown list.

3. Choose / Click on Account Settings, Your GENERAL ACCOUNT SETTINGS will be displayed after doing this.

4. In this page look for Download A Copy Of Your Facebook Data Which would be just below the Language option on your screen. Click on it.

5. You are now in a screen which will prompt you to Start My Archive now if you've really decided that you want to download a copy of your facebook data just click on it and facebook will archive your data for you. It may take sometime wait for an E-mail from Facebook which will tell you when you can download your facebook data.

note: facebook will verify if you really are the owner of the account so it will ask you again for your password before it starts to archive your data.

For lists of data included on your download please check you facebook help center also located on the dropdown arrow beside the HOME button. It goes something like this.

click on Help>> Help Center>> Manage Your Account>>Downloading Your Info

Everything you would like to know will be there
