      @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.

      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
