          @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?

                      @wignyalmeida Thanks !!! Works perfect, just replace wigny with my username and drive C with D because i have users folder in drive D, thank you.

                        @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
