I also use WhatsApp and the option to stay running in the background is not available. Hi bignose2, I am Paulo, an Independent Advisor, and I'm willing to help. I want it on a PC in a office used by many, linked to a phone that is just for the odd use & too easy for someone to close it.Ĭurrently use Hangouts desktop which is pretty good but we normally communicate with staff & everyones else via whatsapp so makes sence.Īlso whilst 95% of time runs in background great & pop's up, starts with windows, it also has been know to log out if google has any issues. Uninstalled all WhatsApp Apps from windows & re-installed. WhatsApp Web also has a setting to 'Stay Logged In' but again tried with this & once closed will not pop up. Does that mean at windows boot or just when you start WhatsApp as does not seem to start with re-boot.Įither way it is too easy to close (X) WhatsApp.

I have the 3 notifications checked, the turn off all notifications UN Checked.

Only if you log out or disconnect from the phone do I want it NOT to send notifications. Ideally minimized to system tray but at the least still running. So it pop's up messages on my Windows 10 PC even if the App has been closed with X. I really would like WhatsApp desktop or even the Web App to stay running & connected to my account
