I can also see the stories, but nowhere will we find the option that allows us to to send a message, to upload some content, but you can also chat from the application.
It can only be seen, but not send or receive, so we will do the following, place the cursor on an empty area and this action will generate a menu with options, from which we will choose Inspect element.

We click on this icon and it automatically changes the appearance of the graphical interface and resembles that of a mobile device.
Now we will go to the top of the screen and choose the Adaptive option and here we will select which mobile model we want to emulate the page and finally update or update the page.
With this simple step, you will have the identical interface to the one you would have on a mobile phone and you will see that you already have the options to send messages or upload multimedia content. This is a perfect option when you have a business Instagram account and can more easily manage it on yours PC.
Now to perform this procedure with Google Chrome, you will follow the same steps only that when you click on an empty spot, you have to choose the Inspect option. The pop-up window will appear on the right side of the screen and the option Mobile mode yes located at the top left under the toggle icon of the device toolbar.
After clicking on this icon, the interface will change and now you need to refresh the page so that you can send a message and upload the content.
Remember before refreshing the page to choose which type of mobile you want the interface to have in the Responsive option. And voila, you have learned to send or receive messages on Instagram from your PC without downloading anything.
