Edge not loading Whatsapp web QR Code

Hello,

 

Chrome is doing the same and thats why i started to use EDGE DEV, but after a few days is happening the same, the QR Code just keeps loading, i tried to fix it erasing the cookies but didn't work, any idea of how to fix this? or is a bug?. 

 

Also, i love the new edge, and how it imports everything from Chrome, just to leave completely Chrome i would love to have the password generator from chrome. I love how i can easily create new passwords and be saved in the password vault. is this going to be implemented in edge? thanks!

    stuka85 I Had the same problem and I can confirm that disabling enhanced security for web.whatsapp.com fixed it. You may try that and see. However, I hope this help the dev team in troubleshooting the issue.

  • I'm using the normal version (103.0.1264.37 Official build 64-bit), as well as the Beta from DEV Channel and the Canary version.

    Until yesterday, WhatsApp web was running smoothly with Beta and Canary.

    Now, when minimizing the browser window of the standard version, WhatsApp web freezes (completely white window) when I use it as a browser app.

    And now in the canary and the beta version, the loading window appears after the QR code but stops and it stays with the loading process.

    stuka85 I see the QR code loaded correctly on my machine.  What Dev version are you running?  I'm on version 76.0.182.6.
