How to edit a WhatsApp message on PC - in detail?

Editing a WhatsApp message on your PC can be a bit tricky, as the official WhatsApp desktop application and web version do not support direct editing of sent messages. However, there are workarounds to achieve this functionality. Below is a detailed guide on how you can edit a WhatsApp message using your PC:

1. Using WhatsApp Web/Desktop:

   • Open WhatsApp Web in your browser or launch the WhatsApp desktop application.
   • Scan the QR code with your phone to log in to your account on the web or desktop app.
   • Locate the message you want to edit and select it by clicking on it.
   • Press Ctrl + C (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + C (Mac) to copy the text of the message.
   • Press Ctrl + V (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + V (Mac) to paste the copied text into a new message window.
   • Edit the pasted text as needed and send it to the recipient.
   • Optionally, you can delete the original message by selecting it and pressing the Delete key.

2. Using Third-Party Applications:

   • There are third-party applications like WhatsApp Plus or GBWhatsApp that offer advanced features, including message editing. However, these applications are not officially supported by WhatsApp and may pose security risks.
   • To use such an application, first uninstall the official WhatsApp app from your phone.
   • Download and install the third-party application of your choice from a trusted source.
   • Follow the on-screen instructions to set up the new application with your phone number.
   • Once set up, you can use the editing feature provided by the third-party application to edit sent messages directly from your PC (if supported).

3. Using WhatsApp Business API:

   • If you are a business user and have access to the WhatsApp Business API, you can use the API to send updated messages to your customers.
   • The API allows for more advanced functionalities, including message editing and updating.
   • To use this method, you will need to integrate the WhatsApp Business API into your application or website.
   • Once integrated, you can use the API to update sent messages with new information or corrections.
