Skype has become completely broken - 10 Windows

I was using the latest version of Skype when I noticed strange problems happening. For example, if I was in a Skype call with someone I couldn't type in the call window (I was able to do this very well before).

If I call others and then try to 'Add' to the call, they do not get a notification or even that a call is in place.

If others are in a call to a group that I added, I can't see the appeal either.

In addition, apparently messages have been sent in cats from group I was, but I can't receive or see them.

However, I can send that IM if they are directly to others, and I can usually join call friends 'start' assuming that I pick up immediately.

I tried to uninstall and reinstall Skype several times, but the problem persists.

Web downloader tells me "Cannot connect" and I had to go out of my way to find the .msi installer to install Skype.

Anyone know what this problem could be, and how can I solve this problem?

Nevermind, I finally found the culprit. Shortly after the launch of Windows 10 I used a tool of "Confidentiality" which apparently messed with the host file.

I managed to find this tool and it has an option for ' difficulty Mail/Skype ", and after the use of the tool, my Skype has been fixed.

  • Windows 7 has become my comments login and I'm locked out of admin

    Hello

    I've been running W7 Pro 64 bit very happy for two months. When I installed, I made a user account for me with admin privileges (I'm the only user on this machine). All of a sudden yesterday I noticed that I could not do some things and on investigation found that W7 has become my admin account a guest one. Same account name, icon, the user files, but no right! I did nothing to cause it, as far as I know, it just happened. I don't think it's a virus, Kaspersky certainly is not report anything.


    I tried to boot from the DVD and by defining the built in Administrator account, but that the command window told me that the command executed successfully, when I restart I see no administrator account. Because I'm the only user I had previously defined netplwiz to connect automatically and I can't disarm that - I just get a window saying 'entry password administrator to run netplwiz' but there is no password box, probably because that there is no administrator account on the system.


    I seem to be completely locked out from changes to the admin of my system. First thing I will do when I get the machine working again, is to create an alternative admin account to use if it never happens again, but for now, I'm completely stuffed.


    Can someone help, please?


    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.


    TP


    UPDATE: I booted in safe mode with command prompt and run lusrmgr.msc to view accounts. Administrator account is here, just can't see on login screens. I thought that the administrator password should be blank (or perhaps the same one that I put in place with my initial admin-level account), so I tried shift-right-click netplwiz and selecting run as another user, and then typing in Administrator and white as well as a selection of passwords possible. No joy. It does not accept any combination of names of users and passwords.

    So, how to use the administrator account?

    Aaaaaargh!

    I have fixed my problem on Windows 7 guest user.  The problem is after I added the computer successfully in my area, I decided to change the name of the computer. So I changed the name and the past of the domain to the working group. After rebooting I connected under the no original domain account, I created, but it was no longer a member of the administrator group and has been labeled as guest user account type.  I had not enabled the administrator account.

    The solution: press F8 at startup for Advanced Startup Options.  Select the option 'Safe Mode with command prompt'.  I was given the opportunity to log on as an administrator, and I did.

    I entered my orders, first to change the admin password then command to activate the administrator account:

    "password net user administrator"-password the password to use.  (Password must meet complexity requirements)

    "net user administrator / Active: Yes.

    Computer restarted and I is presented with the option to connect as administrator.  Connected and managed to create a new account and add to the domain.
