Contact shortcut

Hi,

Is there a way I can have a contact as a shortcut on my desktop so that my kids can click on it and call?

Please use plain text.

Re: Contact shortcut

Hi, vas_tryf, and welcome to the Community!

 

The Skype client software can do a lot, but not that much.  To place a call, you have to be signed on to Skype.  Great idea, though!
