          @mvitoi Sorry for delayed message After some time trying to associate this protocol to any browser in a Virtual machine With windows 7 pro 64x

          i have interesting logs about this.

          1° this protocol is not associate with windows (can't be associated in system)

          2° with Google Chrome "Whatsapp://" do a request to XHTML Protocol, but without response.

          3° in this link

          https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=1111111111111&text=weelll i put web on this url#

          when you change "API" To "WEB" he redirect to whatsapp web page.

          0_1520801808563_23432432111111.png

          BUT, for chat invites, i cant do this 😕

          i will continue my research about it..

          However i think it's a bug.
          I reported to Opera to view if have something to do about that.

          Again, sorry for delayed response.

                  @MVitoi Run this registry script (link) and the WhatsApp protocol will be added automatically on your Windows.

                  Or create and manually run a .reg file with Notepad with the commands:

                  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

                  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp]
                  "URL Protocol"=""
                  @="URL:whatsapp"
                  "DefaultIcon"=""%localappdata%\WhatsApp\app.ico",1"

                  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp\shell]

                  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp\shell\open]

                  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp\shell\open\command]
                  @=""%localappdata%\WhatsApp\WhatsApp.exe" "%1""

                    I run the reg file but still the api protocol not working 😞

                      @passegua, sorry for the delay, but the solution to the problem is this:

                      Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
                      
                      [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp]
                      "URL Protocol"=""
                      @="URL:whatsapp"
                      
                      [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp\shell]
                      
                      [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp\shell\open]
                      
                      [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\whatsapp\shell\open\command]
                      @="\"C:\\Users\\wigny\\AppData\\Local\\WhatsApp\\WhatsApp.exe\" \"%1\""
                      

                      Create a .reg file with that content, but replace the wigny user with your user, and it will work.

                        @wignyalmeida There is no such a things as Whatsapp.exe. This reg will never work. The path is invalid.

                            Ah makes sense. But I use Windows 7. Whatsapp for windows is an app for 8 or above.
                            Why can't Opera just work like Chrome since its the same source?

                                @rodrigowbs - Hi, It works great. but the message is not send and it text area of the whatsapp web interface. Any tweak is to send the message as a complete text, without submit button.

                                Thanks
                                KSK
