I have the same issue if I clone this repo. (Linux Mint 20.3)
Here are some examples of this behavior.
I have the same issue on Linux (Gentoo), using whatsapp-desktop v. 0.5.2.
In Debian11 the situation is similar with the settings lines in the Settings window.
I'm use release 0.5.2 Please help me!
I too have this problem - on Windows 10 Pro - 22H2 (2009: 19045). I would give the version number for your software, except . . that is blank too:
Unfortunately, I'm experiencing the same issue on two different setups: 1) Pop!_OS 21.10 + KDE 5.24.4 2) Kubuntu 22.04.1 + KDE 5.24.7
Only one reason why I used this one was minimizing window to tray. Then I found this https://github.com/D4koon/WhatsappTray/releases
I have the same issue on Ubuntu 22.04, using whatsapp-desktop v0.5.2

It seems that the small script in settings.html doesn't execute correctly because require() isn't defined in that context, and this prevents the settings page from working. Here's the code that generates the errors:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.jQuery = window.$ = require('../js/lib/jquery.min.js');
window.Hammer = require('../js/lib/hammer.min.js');
window.app = require('electron').remote;
_ = window.app.getGlobal("_");
</script>

it can be easy solved?
Getting this issue too, Win10 x64, 0.5.2
Fixed in this commit https://github.com/oOthkOo/whatsapp-desktop/pull/52
If you want to apply the changes on your own before release you can just extract this zip into your resources/app
folder: app.zip
In the resources/app
folder open a terminal and run npm install @electron/remote
(you must have node installed in your system and npm in the PATH env variable, search online how to do that).
I wish it could be fixed by simply editing those HTML and JS/ON files directly under "/opt/whatsapp-desktop/resources/app/"...
And how to solve this in the Windows version?
System details
Expected behavior
Settings windows display options to tick
Actual behavior
No description of the setting in Setting window. just a squares to tick but you have no idea what is that option for.
