In the latest version of Skype's huge CPU load

I have installed Skype on 2 different PC running Windows (freshly installed) 8. When using Skype in combination with Chrome CPU load goes up to 100% of all the minutes or more for a few seconds. It's really irritating and my not-so-rare configuration tells me that more people should have this huge problem.

The only way to stop this behavior must close Skype. I read the topics (from 2012 and 2013) on how you can disable interaction web browser in the Skype settings, but it does not work (or more).

Development of Skype in recent years is just tragic

As of October 15, 2014, with the last update of Skype these amazing huge bugs seem to have been fixed after many, many months (years?). After you install the update and change nothing else on my system, Skype seems fine now. No freezes, no more huge processor and the burden of memory, leaks memory is no longer. Amazing that it took so long to get it, but hey, Microsoft can't complain now that it works.

    Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox. A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

  • Which is simply the latest version of Skype for mac?

    I continue to receive messages on a new version of Skype, or my Skype keeps eager to update but the habit... The version I currently have is version 6.19 (422). It is the most recent? Because he never actually tells you which version of Skype you are downloading/updating the site...

    6.19.442 is indeed the last public version.

  • Impossible to install the latest version of Skype on Windows 7 Ultimate SP1

    Greetings,

    I am the only user of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 Administrator on my laptop, and until last night, my Skype worked very well; but trying to update today, he told me that I had no sufficient privileges to go to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Skype\Phone and suspended installation. I tried to download the installer from the Web site and run in administrator mode, but he received the same message. I can't even change ownership of C:\Program Files (x 86) \Skype\Phone to give me access to it.

    Is it possible to fix this?

    Thank you in advance.

    I managed to solve the problem: the file has been locked because it was used by ControlCenter4 brother for some reason any. Kill the process allowed me to remove the folder and to proceed with the installation.

  • Update to the latest version makes it impossible to connect.

    I have seen that my version of Skype was going to be retired and I wouldn't be able to reconnect if I kept it, so I have (reluctantly) updated, update via Skype itself and having problems to download the installation program to update.

    Once it has been updated, however, I managed to automatically connect through my Microsoft account and saw that my Messenger contacts were all gone, so I tried to disconnect and return to, but for some reason I can't sign in Skype, obtaining only a "sorry, we could not recognize your connection details. Please check your Skype name and password and try again. ', when I don't even use my Skype name. I tried to connect to my Microsoft Account in my browser, and it worked perfectly, so there is problem of Skype.

    I would be grateful if someone could help me in this and maybe help me see why I had no Messenger contacts when I registered for the first time after the update.

    Yes. Skype uses IE installed on your computer. Update your IE to the latest version of IE8.

  • IE9 RC and the latest version of Flash Player do not work

    IE9 Release Candidate was pushed to tens of thousands of users yesterday and now the latest version of flash player does in it. I have a PC running Windows 7 64-bit and another under Windows 7 32 bit... same problem. Sites that use flash to display a video died... including YouTube. They all say "you must update your Adobe Flash Player to view this video." that, of course, does not solve the problem. Another site using the flash for audio, and it is also DOA. It is a huge deal because it's finally a browser of MS which is focused on the standards and it's very close to realization. Any ideas when this will be resolved?

    Hi, take a look at your addons. Go to tools, Manage addons and under "Show"(texte très léger) look in all addons. "." Find Shockwave Flash Object and make sure that it's allowed.

    Update a browser version may disable this.

    Let me know.

    Thank you
