CTRL + ALT + N = Create a new group.
CTRL + ALT + P = Open your own WhatsApp profile.
CTRL + ALT + , = Open WhatsApp Settings.
CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + / = Search chats and messages.
CTRL + ALT + F = Search messages in the current chat.
CTRL + ALT + E = Archive the current chat.
CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + M = Mute the current chat.
CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + U = Mark as unread the current chat.
CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + H = Contact the WhatsApp support.
CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE = Delete the current chat.
CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + [ = Open the previous chat.
CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + ] = Open the next chat.
