Hence, we @WindowsLatest request our users not to update to the latest version 2.17.140 of WhatsApp Beta and await for a new update to the version. Till then please use your WhatsApp with the earlier version of 2.17.138. If users have already updated then they would need to wait for the bug to be fixed with a new update.
