   • Select "Linked Devices" and then "Link a Device." Scan the QR code displayed on your computer using your phone’s camera.
   • Once scanned, follow the prompts to complete the linking process. Your first WhatsApp account will now be accessible from your computer.

3. Set Up Your Second Account:

   • You will see another QR code displayed on the screen.
   • On your second phone, open WhatsApp and go to the settings menu.
   • Select "Linked Devices" and then "Link a Device." Scan the new QR code with your second phone’s camera.
   • Follow the prompts to complete the linking process. Your second WhatsApp account will now be accessible from this new browser window or incognito/private window.

4. Switch Between Accounts:

   • To switch between your accounts, simply click on the appropriate window where you have linked each account. You can easily toggle between them as needed.

5. Log Out When Necessary:

   • If you need to log out of either account for any reason, go to the settings menu in WhatsApp Web or the desktop app and select "Log Out." This will disconnect your phone from that particular session.

By following these steps, you can effectively manage two separate WhatsApp accounts on your computer, ensuring seamless communication across both numbers.
