Skype For Business App Mac

Jul 15, 2017 I cannot open skype on my mac. I was forced to upgrade my entire operating system (OSX 10.12) so I could use the latest version of skype. It worked for one day, now skype will not open up at all. I used skype successfully for years on this same computer. Step 2: Remove Skype for Business cache. Exit Skype for Business. For example, click the down arrow next to the gear icon, select File, and then Exit. Start Registry Editor. To do this, right-click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and then press OK. Locate the following subkey: Skype for Business 2016: HKEYCURRENTUSERSoftware.

Original story (from Feb 20) follows:

Looks like Skype is acting glitchy for some users currently. According to reports, the Windows 10 client of the service is closing / crashing at the moment. Users are taking to social media to report the problem.

Here are some reports:

@Skype your PC app is broken. It kicked me from a call and then closed completely. Now when I open the app it loads but then closes again

@Skype Hey guys, I’m having a huge problem with my skype for Windows 10 app. The window keeps force closing by itself, even through the app is still running in the background.
