Set Skype to not "hang" when starting

skype

Skype is one of the most popular applications for video and audio calls over the Internet. It is available for various operating systems including Windows, Linux, Android and Windows Phone. Microsoft recently bought it to replace its own Windows Live με το Skype. Τώρα είναι στενά συνδεδεμένο με τα Windows, αφού από τα Windows 8.x έρχεται ως ενσωματωμένη of the subway.

If you are a Skype user, you may have noticed that the application "hangs" during the of it, especially if it starts with the start of your entire computer. This annoying behavior is caused by the program's history synchronization feature. Although it is useful to have all the Skype history on each of our PCs/mobile devices, over time the size of y can become quite large.

So in this case Skype takes several minutes to load and sync all its history. That's why it seems to stick. To fix this, simply change them of your instant messages to reduce the history size.

  1. Go to Skype Main Menu -> Tools -> Options…
  2. Navigate to Direct Message and SMS to the left
  3. Navigate to Instant Messaging Settings in the submenu
  4. Click the button Show advanced options

skype-hangs-after-start-for-a-few-minutes-1

5. Change the option Keep History for in two weeks:

skype-hangs-after-start-for-a-few-minutes-2

6. Optionally, you can also Clear History if you have nothing important in your conversations.

 

Now the launch of Skype will be fast.
