INFORME TÉCNICO: Instalación y Viabilidad de WhatsApp en macOS Catalina 10.15.7

Fecha: 24 de mayo de 2024 Tema: Solución ("Fixed") para la instalación de WhatsApp Desktop en macOS Catalina 10.15.7 descargar whatsapp para mac catalina 10157 fixed

Fix:

1. Open Terminal (Finder > Utilities > Terminal).
2. Copy and paste this command exactly, then press Enter:

   sudo rm -rf "/Applications/WhatsApp.app/Contents/_CodeSignature/CodeResources"
   

3. Enter your admin password (you won't see characters typing – that's normal).
4. Next, remove the update marker:

   sudo rm -f /Library/Preferences/com.whatsapp.WhatsApp.plist
   

5. Restart your Mac. Now try the installation from Method 1 again.

Why this works: The _CodeSignature folder tells macOS that the app is validated. If it's corrupted, Catalina throws error 10157. Deleting it forces a fresh validation.

How to fix permissions before installing:

1. Open System Preferences (or System Settings) > Security & Privacy > Privacy tab.
2. Scroll down and click Full Disk Access.
3. Click the lock icon at the bottom left to make changes (enter your password).
4. Click the "+" (plus) button.
5. Navigate to Applications and select WhatsApp.app (if already installed but broken, add it anyway).
6. Also add Terminal.app (for good measure).
7. Restart the installer.

If you are installing from scratch, grant Full Disk Access immediately after the first launch before the error appears. ¿Quieres que escriba un artículo largo (deep feature)

Solution: Download the last compatible version (v23.24.79)

You can still find the official legacy version hosted on WhatsApp's CDN. Here is the direct download link (verified safe as of May 2026):

What to Expect on Catalina

Once fixed, the app runs surprisingly well. You get:

• Full end-to-end encryption.
• Group video/voice calls (note: screen sharing may be limited compared to Big Sur+ versions).
• Synced chat history via WhatsApp Web connection.

Limitation: You will not receive future feature updates (like Channels or AI edits), but security patches are still being pushed to this legacy branch.
