How to delete Skype account

Skype is convenient for all: and the possibility of remote communication, and free distribution, and easy registration procedure. But if you want to remove your account, a surprise awaits you - such an opportunity, the creators of Skype have not provided. Therefore, we can go only about removing personal information from your profile.

1
Start by user's photo. It will not be possible to remove it, the option is to replace your personal photo on any picture. To do this, in the Skype menu, find the item "Personal data" and "Change My Avatar". You can upload a picture from a computer, or closing your finger to the webcam, make a black snapshot and then click the "Use this Image" button.

Next, go to the Skype menu again and select "Edit My Data". In order to access the entire information made to the profile, click on the "Show full profile" button, remove the data in each of the fields where it is possible. As a result, only login should remain.

Now you need to clear the list of contacts. To do this, highlight each contact with the right mouse button and click "Delete from the contacts" in the context menu.

I would like to stop on it, but it's not all. In addition to personal data, Skype keeps the history of your correspondence. To delete it, open the program settings window through the Tools menu. On the left side of the dialog box, click on the Chat Settings item and then click the Open Advanced Settings button on the right side of the window. Next, you need to click "Clear History" and change the default history of storage configurations - change them to "not save". Save the changes.

In the Skype menu, press output and do no longer under this login. You can also delete your login that appears in the program greeting window - press Win + R and enter the "% AppData% \\ Skype" command (without quotes), select your username from the accounts list and click Delete.

All that can be done. From the search, your login will disappear after a couple of weeks, there will be no calls and messages, and the complete removal of the account from the database will occur after an indefinite period of time.
