How do I remove my profile picture?

Removing your profile picture is easy to do. First, log into your account and click on the “Settings” tab. From there, you should be able to select the “Edit Profile” option. Once you’ve clicked through to “Edit Profile”, you’ll be able to edit or delete your profile photo.

Simply click on the “Remove” option, and then select “Yes” to confirm that you’d like to delete your photo. If you’re logged in to a social media account, such as Facebook, you can also remove your profile picture by visiting your “Profile Pictures” album and clicking on the “Delete” button.

After you’ve deleted the photo, it’s also a good idea to go to your profile settings and ensure that the “Show Profile Picture” option is set to “No”. That way, other users won’t be able to view your photo even if you’ve removed it.

Where is my Skype photo stored?

Your Skype photo is stored in your Skype profile. It will show up both on your avatar as well as when a contact searches for you. You can also view and share your Skype profile photo without logging into Skype.

To find and manage your Skype profile photo, open Skype, click your profile picture at the top of the window, select “Change Profile Picture” and follow the on-screen instructions. If you have previously used a photo as your profile picture, it is stored in your “My Photos” folder in the “My Documents” folder of your computer.

You can also find it in your Skype profile located in the same folder.

Does Skype save photos?

Yes, Skype does save photos. It saves all photos you send to and receive from contacts in the “Conversations” tab. This allows you to easily access and view images that have been shared through Skype in the future.

If you click on a conversation and then click on the gear icon in the conversation header, you can select “Show Pictures” and drag and drop the photos at the top of the conversation. If you decide you’d like to permanently save certain images to your devices, you can select the download icon beside each picture to do so.

How do I delete Skype chat history on both sides?

In order to delete Skype chat history on both sides, you need to take the same steps on both accounts.

First, go to the Contacts tab and select the conversation that you wish to delete. Next, right click on the conversation and select the “Delete Conversation” option. This will delete the conversation locally, meaning it will no longer appear in your conversation history.

Keep in mind that even if you delete the conversation, it will still appear on the other person’s account unless they delete it too.

In order to delete the conversation from their account as well, the other person must take the same steps that you did in order to delete the chat history from their own account. They must go to the Contacts tab, select the conversation, right click on it, and then select the “Delete Conversation” option.

Once both people have deleted the conversation from their respective Skype accounts, the chat history will be deleted from both sides.

What does removing a message on Skype do?

Removing a message from Skype will allow you to delete the message from your view and the view of anyone else that has the conversation open. It is important to note, however, that on Skype, you cannot actually permanently delete a message.

Removing a message means that a strike-through line is applied to the text of the message, making it still visible to you and any other participants in the conversation but indicating that it has been removed.

While the message can still be viewed by both parties, it also won’t show up in Skype history searches. This means that if anyone tries to search for the message in the future, they won’t be able to see it.

Additionally, while the message will remain in the conversation, the removal will prevent it from being accidentally included in any screenshots or other documentation that might be shared by yourself or other conversation participants.

When you remove a message from Skype can the other person still see it?

No, once a message has been removed from Skype, it is gone for good and the other person will not be able to see it any more. The only way they will be able to tell that the message existed is if they take a screenshot before it is removed.

Additionally, depending on the type of conversation and their settings, the other person might still receive a notification that a message was sent, even after it has been removed.

How do you permanently delete Skype messages?

To permanently delete Skype messages, you’ll need to delete them from your device and from the Skype servers. To delete them from your device, simply go to the conversation you’d like to delete, select the messages you’d like to remove, and then tap the delete icon or select “delete messages” from the settings tab in the upper right hand corner.

Deleting Skype messages from the Skype servers is a bit more complicated. To do this, you’ll need to navigate to your Skype security settings in the web version of Skype. Once there, you’ll be able to delete all messages from any contact for a specified time period.

You can also choose to delete all messages sent to any contact and delete your own messages.

Remember that Skypes’ default settings allow messages and conversations to be stored in the Skype history, so if you’d like to permanently delete any messages, you’ll need to disable this feature. To do this, you can go to your Skype privacy settings and select “never store history”.

This will ensure that any messages you send in the future, will not be stored anywhere in the system.

It’s also important to note that Skype doesn’t provide a way to recover messages that have been deleted from the system. So, it’s important to make sure you aren’t deleting any important messages before you take the steps necessary to permanently delete them.

Are Skype conversations saved?

Yes, Skype conversations can be saved. If you are using a Windows PC, you can find archived conversations in the following folder: C:\Users\[NAME]\AppData\Roaming\Skype\[SKYPE_NAME]. If you are using a Mac, Skype conversations can be found in the following directory: /Users/[NAME]/Library/Application Support/Skype/[SKYPE_NAME].

You can also manually save individual conversations by hovering over the conversation and clicking the three dots icon located in the top right corner of the conversation window. Once you have clicked the icon, you will see an option to “Save chat.

” Additionally, Skype allows users to export files. You can do this by selecting the conversation and clicking “Export chat history” at the top of the page.

If security is a concern for you, you can create a similar folder structure on an external hard-drive, allowing you to store and archive any Skype conversations that you think are important.

Why is my Skype profile picture not changing?

There could be a few reasons why your Skype profile picture is not changing. First, make sure you are connected to the internet with a strong, reliable internet connection. You may need to restart your device or router if you are experiencing any connection issues.

Second, ensure you have selected the picture you want and that it meets the requirements of the app. Currently, Skype profile pictures must be smaller than 8MB, and must be in image formats such as. gif,. jpg, and.

png. If the file size is too large, you’ll need to resize it. If the file format is not supported, you’ll need to convert it to an appropriate format.

Third, check to see that you have saved the changes correctly. Once you have selected the photo you want, make sure to click the “Save” button. If you don’t, the profile picture won’t be updated.

Finally, if you are still having difficulty, you may need to sign out and back into the Skype account. This will ensure any changes you have made have been properly saved.

If none of these steps rectify the issue, then you should contact Skype Support for further assistance.
