Can confirm this issue with WhatsApp Plugin. Didn't knew that it works when I start it a second time.
I think I didn't had this issue a time before. But a few days ago I've got a Python upgrade from 3.8 to 3.9. I'm not sure but maybe it is a Python 3.9 related bug?
When I run silo -a whatsapp
from terminal I get following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):

EDIT (2021-01-04): Since I've wrote this, and started it twice I never had this issue again...
EDIT (2021-01-17): Ok in the last few days I had this issue 3 times. Starting a second instance of is a workaround to get it working again.
@Xystel is this still an issue? I can use whatsapp without ever seeing an error message. :)
for me it's the other way around: it worked the first time until I pressed "Update Whatsapp" from then on it would display the message about needing Chrome 60+
On first start i get this message https://imgur.com/HoRfrI7 On second start everything seems ok.
