Geekers - The solution for how to deal with the code execution error cannot proceed because ffmpeg.dll was not found on WhatsApp
Recently the WhatsApp application on a computer / laptop device has experienced a problem, namely the appearance of an error that says "The code execution cannot proceed because ffmpeg.dll was not found" every time we open the WhatsApp application.
Of course, this problem is quite annoying, especially for me, who works in front of a laptop every day, and often uses the desktop version of WhatsApp so that my concentration is not split every time a message or chat comes in. So I don't have to bother opening my cellphone because we can see or reply to the WhatsApp chat directly from the laptop.
The ffmpeg.dll not found or missing error occurs because of a bug in the latest WhatsApp application, and until now WhatsApp has not fixed it. From our investigations from various sources, there are damaged data or files (most of them are DIFF files and SHASUM files). Even reinstalling the WhatsApp application cannot solve this problem.
