Skype has stopped working, check online

Asked By Daniel Nicholass 30 points N/A Posted on - 09/20/2012

Hi,

I have been using Skype on Windows 7 for the past over a year. I have never experienced such an issue before.

 

Today when I started skype I am getting the strange error asking me to check for a solution online which does not exists.

 

 

 

Skype has stopped working

Windows can check for a solution and close the program.

Check online for a solution and close the program

Close the program

View problem details.

 

I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the software, but it has been of no help.

 

Thanks,

Daniel

Hello,

It happens sometimes that when you start an application in windows 7 they might crash or sometimes malfunctioned. You need to uninstall the software and download the latest version of the software.

Go to http://www.skype.com/en/ and download the latest version of Skype which is compatible with windows 7. This should solve your problem.

Thank you.

Hi Daniel,

There seems to be some problem with your version of Skype. 

I would recommend you to re-install your Skype software.

Go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove a program. Select Skype and then follow the on-screen instructions to uninstall the software.

Then go to the following link to get the latest version of the Skype software.

Link: http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/

This should solve your problem.

Regards,
