Welcome to the latest edition of our "Community News". These news updates give you an overview of what has happened in our community in the past week. I am looking forward to hear how you like these and what additional topics you like to see covered here.

 

Community chitchat

 

The last week community discussion was dominated by some crashing issue with Skype for Windows. Almost all users could get their Skype running again within minutes by upgrading to our 5.7 beta version. We saw a lot of similar message all over the Windows board. It would be great if more users made use of the search feature to find the solution without even having to wait for a reply.

 

Thread of The Week

 

Definitely the instructions to upgrade your Skype for Windows installation is the thread of the week.

 

Post highlight

 

Some times the helping message can be as short as a a pointer towards the right entry in the Skype knowledgebase. Again our Super User g4pilut is sharing his vast Skype expertise on running multiple Skype account simultaneously. Thanks for that.
