But before we reach the solution, it is very vital for one to know why this happens and what could be the possible causes of those WhatsApp denied errors. Knowing this will not only help you solve the current problem but too, will help you learn how to prevent it from happening in the future.
From my own observations, WhatsApp denied errors are commonly caused by third-party applications which people install on their Android, iPhone, Laptop, and Web. Some applications will attempt to change WhatsApp permissions settings of other applications, which can lead to errors in contacts, videos, audio, camera, and others. Additionally, the user him or herself can change the permissions accidentally, which can lead to the above.
