Please fix the crashing i dont want to download the beta :sad:


If you don’t want to install 5.7 Beta now, then you will have to wait a couple of days until Skype will fix the error with the animated ads. The other thing you can do is to change in Skype the view mode to Compact View, close the Home page and Quit Skype. Next time you start Skype, you will not see the Home page with the ads and Skype should work. However, any time you will try to activate the Home page, Skype may crash.

I had the same issue on Skype. It kept crashing when I opened it and make a call. I just installed the beta version and it worked fine. Looks like a compatibility issue with the old version 5.6.

Had same issue with Skype closing after 30 seconds or so. This only began after the usual weekly set of Windows updates. Downloaded the beta and Skype seems to be working. Fingers crossed it continues...

What do you have against the Beta version? It works fine for me & seems to have completely resolved the crash on Windows 7.
