Windows 10: Why can't I get Leicestershire Police on WhatsApp desktop

I can get a particular Channel, Leicestershire Police, on WhatsApp Web but can't find it on WhatsApp Desktop so I have to have two windows open. Any ideas - PLEASE!!!! Tried everything I can think of, buy Desktop doesn't seem to recognise it. All my other contacts are in Desktop and I've never had a problem. No idea what to try next. Any help gratefully received. Thank you. The 'appropriate' product and topics i have to select from don't seem to relate to what I'm asking, but if I don't select, I can't post. DOH

Whatsapp desktop - making a chat / call with no contacts

A friend uses Whatsapp from a phone. I'd like to use whatsapp from my desktop or phone to communicate with them.

I have installed whatsapp on my android phone and have connected the desktop. And am leaving the phone turned on, as directed.

I refused to permit Whatsapp to read my contacts, etc.. I'm not a big facebook fan and know that they share everything everywhere and sell it everywhere.

However, I cannot figure a way to make or even receive a call using whatsapp without using my contacts list.
Is this true or is there something I'm missing. On the desktop app I put in a phone number and it wants to search my contacts, which of course it does not have. After using "Create Group" same thing.

No way to make a call at all with whatsapp if you don't share your contacts with it?

if so, Whatsapp is completely broken for me.

And if so that's fine since I can use Skype or Discord just fine.

Thanks much,
wg

 

Problem with WhatsApp Web and WhatsApp Desktop

Thank you for your response.

The last time it was working properly was this morning. I turned off my laptop and when I turned it on again, it finished installing the windows update. Since then, WhatsApp Web stopped working. I have Windows 10 Home. I did reinstall

the WhatsApp Desktop App and it didn´t work.

I followed the steps shown on the web page you indicated, uninstalled the latest windows updates, but after rebooting, the updates are still there, so I tried the restoring option, but the System Restore Button appears gray. I can´t click on it.
