Skype for Windows Vista

Skype for Windows Vista, or simply Skype for Vista, uses the same installer as Skype for Windows XP. However, unlike Windows XP, Mojis and video messages work on Windows Vista. Moreover, compared to Windows 10, the only function that does not work in Skype for Windows Vista is spell checking. Otherwise, although Microsoft stops supporting Vista in April 2017, Skype for this OS practically does not differ from Skype for Windows 7.

    dear fellow[fella!perhaps] wow, you are tremendous. truly. :)
    a little mess[hope not]. am unable to install the latest as in 7.36... version
    compatibility, runas admin...nothing changed the OS, vista home prem. install .exe's inability.
    plese, send on.a 'fix' if there is one. thanks most appreciatively.

    am not too worried or bothered i guess if the install won't/doesn't happen. i'll throw pc out onto a roof as a suicider!...i'll stand by that statement. poor ole thing...it said, these idiot ms idots. they know nada, just the money. can't take it with them? they don't care!!!
    it is such a pity that ms has decided, to mess up the customers[loyal ones-we KNOW the best os's available. we care. metinks, others do not, enuff,.] rather than the idiots! :),
    take care of You. there is only one of your unique! bfn.

      Hello! Unfortunately, Microsoft has disabled Skype 7 and users cannot use it anymore on any operating systems. At this moment the only known solution is to use Skype for Web on Windows XP and Windows Vista.
