We are retiring Skype for Windows10 v11.x on 25th May 2018

Hi All

I just want to update about Skype for Windows 10, it has some functional issues;

1) When I use Status " Do not disturb", it don't obeys and continuously giving notifications

2) Even, if I quit Skype, Notification still annoy me.

3) Connectivity problems, every thing is fine with Internet Connection, Old skype was working, but skype for windows 10, not working.

I hope, these issue would be resolved ASAP.

I have Skype Version 12.1815.209.0 - latest update.

Problem :  The menu bar has disappeared.  I used the menu bar for the "Call" function to see whether my microphone and speakers were operational.  It gave me a visual indication for this which is useful for a hearing impaired person.  Now this function is gone !

How do I get it back ?

Hi SaadMalik956,

Please read How do I manage Skype notifications?

You might also want to look up Windows10 notification settings as these sometimes override application notification settings.

We have made it simpler to manage your audio/video settings.

Just click on the ellipsis (...), select Settings > Audio and Video where you will find everything about your microphone and speakers.

Let me know if you need any further assistance.

Nothing or no updates have solved my problem. I cannot make Skype contact as I did previously between the U.K. and U.S.A. Nobody at Microsoft seems to give a care. Solve my problem by giving me human to human contact.

I cannot access Skype. I have icon on bottom of screen that does not function at all, no pop up or opening of program. Tried to download update and message says; I already have Skype on my computer. Cannot find list of programs since last Microsoft update. Cannot find 'remove or change program' files as I cannot find program list.

I'll advise that you uninstall all instances of Skype on your computer and then do a clean install from the Microsoft Store.
