  • Skype completely freezes my computer whenever it is open. Windows 10

    I'm starting to get very irritated with Skype, and my friends and I are all poised to this pit for another communication program. I'm doing a last resort in order to resolve this question before giving up completely.

    Specifications of the computer

    X 51 Alienware system

    10 64-bit Windows

    Intel Core i3 3.70 gHz

    8.00 GB of Ram

    Everytime I open my computer Skype everything freezes instantly, and I have to turn off manually.

    I follow on each single patch that I can find on this forum and none of them helped. I reinstalled Skype 7 times in total and have reinstalled my drivers realtek audio 3 times in total. I tried several headphones and speaker systems and nothing will solve my problem. If I'm going to my audio devices / check and disable all forms of audio and microphone Skype starts perfectly and excellent work, but once I activate audio Realtek, my computer crashes instantly.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm beyond frustrated with this program right now.

    (I don't consider decommissioning a solution at all so please do not suggest it)

  • Skype does not in closing the program. (Skype 7.17 - Windows 10)

    I used to have the problem where Skype will stop at random to answer when I tried to start, which would force me to close it with the Task Manager, then try again.
    After a lot of fiddling around, update drivers, update of Internet Explorer (please kill me why is this one thing) and so on... I finally managed to get this problem to the most out of my life.
    Now, still only a problem When I try to close the program (by right-clicking on the icon and "quit") it just does not... at all... Strangely it does not change the "not responding" mode, it's just... died. Even in taskmanager it does not show as a "no answer", but he acts as if nothing is wrong.

    Here's what "solutions do not work:
    -Remove temporary files
    -deleting files appdata
    -do a clean reinstall
    -addition of "'https://apps.skype.com ' on sites in IE 'internet options'"
    -Remove "'https://apps.skype.com ' on sites in IE 'internet options'"
    -closing all individually the program other than Skype and try again
    -Deletes the registry values for Skype (it was my last resort)

    NOTE: While looking through possible questions, I noticed that my Skype in the program compatibility mode is locked 'Windows Vista'... it is grayed out and cannot be changed, no matter what I try. Haven't found a solution for this yet (not even in safe mode).

    The first thing to do is to identify the compatibility set to Skype options.

    Right click on the shortcut on the desktop, select Properties, then the Compatibility tab.

    Press the button "Change settings for all users" and disable the compatibility options in this tab

  • Toshiba controls freezes Windows Explorer on Satellite L350D

    Hey guys, my Toshiba controls (Mute, play, stop, next and forward) buttons literally freezes Windows Explorer. I'm not 100% sure if there is a driver that comes pre-installed, but if there is then could someone point me in the right direction on how to fix this?

    Also, if it helps I have my folder 'TOSAPINS' containing all the programs that came pre-installed with my laptop.

    Thank you for your support.

    Hello

    Do you mean that your internet explore crashes by pressing control buttons Toshiba?
    That s strange.

    Never heard talk about this issue, but as you know nothing is impossible using the Windows OS ;)

    However, I recommend the update of the OS and the cleaning of the operating system using CCLeaner (free software).
    In addition, you could reinstall the package of value added because this package contains applications that control buttons of Toshiba.

    Good bye

    Is it possible in which I can use Skype through my window without any browser plug-ins or software?

  • Skype freezes windows 10 to start Skype

    Whenever I run Skype, my computer hangs and nothing can bring it in addition to the strength to restart with the power button. As long as I make sure that Skype is not loading, my computer works very well. I'll post my conclusion thus dxdiag.exe. I updated my drivers and ensures that the firewall settings were fine. Neither helped. Any help is appreciated.

    So, I finally found a solution. I used the shooter of compatibility issues, it did not show all of the options for my questions, but he asked me what version of windows, it has worked before, well, since this computer is originally shipped with windows 10, I didn't know what to click, so I chose windows 8. He ran with compatibility for windows 8 and as an administrator; It works fine now. Thanks for your help.

  • First Post, Skype webcam freeze.

    Hello everyone,

    I usually fix typing on Google but I can't find a way to get rid of this problem to Skype.

    I am running Windows 7 64-bit, with Skype. 6.16.

    I have two webcams, one built into my laptop and the external one, Logitech C270.

    Both worked perfectly until tonight. And I do not remember doing something special.

    So after 1 min, I see the light next to my camera flashes, then video freeze for other people with the fact that I am in contact. I still see myself to move. When I go to video option. I see myself on camera.

    First step: during the call, I try to stop the video, but I can't restart, the button remains grey. If the callee to see my avatar. My webcam light stay on.

    Second step: I hang up and remind them, but the video button remains grey.

    Third step: I uninstalled and reinstalled Skype. Same problem as above.

    Fourth step: I uninstalled my webcam driver and software and reinstalled them. Same problem as above.

    Fifth step: I've updated my Nvidia driver. Same problem as above.

    Sixth step: I uninstalled and reinstalled Skype twice in a row. Same problem as above.

    Seventh step: I check this problem with 3 other people. The problem occurs. So, it is definitely from my Skype.

    Can anyone help? Thank you very much.

  • Notification of Firefox at the bottom right of the screen freezes Windows 7

    It seems that recently, Firefox (and maybe pop up notifications) are freezing my computer Windows 7. I used Firefox for years without this problem. In recent weeks, I noticed that system freeze seems to happen when a Firefox pop-up notification appears at the bottom right of the screen (for example Firefox 38.0.5 is available...). The mouse will continue moving the cursor on the screen for a few seconds, then that freezes at. I get no response from the keyboard, even CTRL-ALT-DEL and start button / stop fail to restart the machine. I need to remove and replace the power cord.

    Hoping that Mozilla has solved the problem I updated today to 39.0 Firefox, but when a plugin of Firefox browser introduced a notification in the lower right corner of the system froze again. I don't have this problem of gel when Mozilla Thunderbird shows a notification in the bottom right of the screen (e.g. XXXXXX received 6 new messages).

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.

    You can check if there is an update for your display driver graphic card and search for hardware acceleration of related issues.

  • Problem with Skype desktop snap Windows 10.

    First of all I want to clarify one thing: I don't speak of Aero Snap.
    I want to talk about the automatic ability of Office Skype to align a corner of the screen when it is quite near the corner of the screen.
    Given that Microsoft has made the invisible window borders in Windows 10 (without actually removing them), Desktop Skype seems very strange when broken. It always behaves as if the window border was visible and so we see a gap between the edge of the window of Skype and edge of the screen when Skype is engaged. I know this isn't a huge issue, but it would be still nice if you have patched this flaw on.

    It seems that the latest version of Skype has solved this problem for most. Skype has now aligns with the edge of the screen of the Visual border, not the border entering. The only problem is that he throws still broken by the border entering, but you can break it then manually to the Visual border, which was not possible before.

  • Cannot set up Skype. Freezes on login

    I'm trying to install Skype on a new computer. Windows 7-64.

    The installer crashes when it gets to the connection. I have read several posts that seem similar, but the problem is that I can't see the login screen of the House. I have two computers, a Tablet and a phone. None of them will display the homescreen msn.com or hotmail.com. They switch to whatever is the current "live" domain name, but the page is empty, without any error. I don't have any problem connect from work. Outlook continues to send and receive e-mail from these accounts and Skype account works on the other computer.

    I tried to get support for the e-mail account, but there is no place to report. I spent a few hours looking.

    I wireless now, but not on the same subnet as my wired computers. I guess I had an IP address conflict.
