This prevents the client from starting and imho should be reviewed quickly. Especially painful for docker environments.

Funciona comentando esa linea de codigo, pero siempre y cuando no se reinicie el servidor, si el servidor es reiniciado y trata de conectar de nuevo los usuarios logueados, se pierde la autenticacion y genera un nuevo qr.

Que mas se puede hacer en ese caso?

Funcionou , mas no docker tem que mudar toda vez que bilda

Hi, i got the solution to this by doing:-

Path:- node_modules/whatsapp-web.js/src/util/Injected.js
Line number 16

This
window.Store.Features = window.mR.findModule('FEATURE_CHANGE_EVENT')[0].LegacyPhoneFeatures;

to

This
window.Store.Features = window.mR.findModule('FEATURE_CHANGE_EVENT')[0]?.LegacyPhoneFeatures;
