The issue relates to copy and pasting images into Whatsapp Desktop. The issue has only been present since they moved from an exe to a Windows Store installation. Whatsapp do not believe it's an issue on their end.
Here's a reddit thread with a few users experiencing the same: https://old.reddit.com/r/whatsapp/comments/13xcbrd/webp_images_not_displayed_in_chat_since_recent/
When right-clicking and copying an image, regardless of whether it's JPG or PNG etc, it doesn't copy the image in, it copies a html document that seems to be a reference to the location of the image. I have attached a picture of what that looks like. It also claims to be a webp, which the original image usually isn't, so perhaps it's some conversion causing the issue?

I have tested this with multiple browsers and the issue is present only in Firefox and Waterfox. Chrome/Edge/Opera dont have the issue. I have also disabled all browser extensions, to see if one is interferring, no dice. Issue still present.
I hope you can help here, this is very frustrating. I dont want to move away from Firefox, i've used it since I was a teenager. Happy to help in any way I can.
