Skype Window Staying On Top Of Other Windows

[ Edited ]

I don't know why but when in a skype conversatio, if I go to another program...such as a game I'm playing, the skype window stays on top blocking the game, etc.

 

The full window doesn't show, but up in the right corner there is a small skype window showing the call.

How do i get rid of it

Click on Tools > Options > Calls and uncheck the box "Show call contrls when Skype is in the background."

Hi thank you for the reply. I did do as you suggested, however it is stil there >.>

 

Do I need to relog Skype, or end the call and start it again in order for this to take affect?

If you rollover that window there should be an X in the upper right hand corner.  You can close it and it won't reappear.   Or once you've changed the setting in Options, if you restart the call you won't see that box again.
