Error launching Whatsapp #17

I've installed version 1.3.1 on Windows 10 Pro, but when I launch it this error shows up: "Error launching Whatsapp". Whatsapp Desktop is installed and working. Any suggestion?

WhatsappTray uses startmenue-shortcuts maybe they got messed up somehow. Try reinstalling whatsapp other than that i probably cant help you.

Problem solved: I installed Whatsapp via Microsoft Store instead of downloading it from Whatsapp website. This way the folder called "Whatsapp"in the start menu does not get created and your program is not able to find it. Now that I installed it the other way everything works just fine. Thank you!
