WhatsApp app downgrade drama for Windows 11 users

WhatsApp just took another step toward pushing PC users to its new web app. If you open WhatsApp for Windows, you’ll see a vague warning message that mentions “changes are coming to WhatsApp for Windows.”

What that message fails to mention is that WhatsApp is shifting back to a wrapped web app. WhatsApp started testing its new web wrapper back in July. The move makes development easier for WhatsApp, but the change comes at the cost of system resources for users.
