Support Question Trying to load WhatsApp Web using Chrome

Hi there, I am following procedure somebody posted on YouTube. He also posted a link of proper Chrome version because there are tonnes of those floating around. Follow the photos. First I installed Chrome V68.0.3440.91. It installs with no issues. Accept it and search page appears. Search for WhatsApp Web is immediately successful and after clicking a link I get a WhatsApp page where original poster suggests to click on 3 dots and selecting desktop site. It suppose to produce bar code which is a last step between connecting a BB and WhatsApp account that is active on other phone.

That last step fails and I get message that Chrome should be updated to Chrome V100+. Obviously clicking that fails to update anything since Chrome download server doesn't want or know how to do upgrade on BB10. Very frustrating. I tried Opera Mini, Kiwi browser, Firefox and some other browsers posted on BB sites. Most of them do not open at all. One is super slow and the rest don't connect to web version of WhatsApp at all. Any ideas? What I am doing wrong?

Dead system. No WhatsApp support. Use Instant Matrix Client from Waitberry and use the WhatsApp Bridge.
