WhatsApp is a leading messaging platform for Windows and Android that lets you send text messages, make voice and video calls, and share files over the internet. Launched in 2009 and now part of Facebook, the service relies on end-to-end encryption to protect private conversations and group chats. On desktop, the Windows client pairs with your Android device so you can continue chats on a larger screen. The installation of WhatsApp on PC is straightforward: download the Windows client, run the installer, and scan the QR code from your mobile app to link accounts. The desktop app supports synchronized notifications, high-resolution media transfer, and convenient file sharing. Whether you need a mobile download to create an account or guidance on how to use WhatsApp on PC without smartphone for web-only access, the desktop options cover common needs and workflows. Find step-by-step install instructions, tips for how to check the WhatsApp number tied to a profile, and basic privacy settings to keep messages secure on Windows machines, including support for legacy systems such as Windows 8.
