Hi,
In Skype, go to the tools menu, select options.
Then Press down arrow to move to the privacy node in the tree and press
tab.
You should find what your looking for there.

talking about GW-Connect. I'm asking about the native Skype app. I
can't run GW connect as I'm on Windows 8.1. Anyway, in the native Skype
app, how exactly do you clear past chat history. If I hit alt+1 to get
to my contacts list, I see all the contacts. That isn't an issue. the
problem that I have is let's say that someone chats me. I see a way to
hit my application's key and go to hide conversation, and I also in my
view menu see a way to view instant messages, and how to unhide hidden
conversations, but I can't for the life of me see how to clear the
history! It's driving me crazy! Is there not a way to delete history?
Some of the conversations I have literally have text chats going 30 to
60 days back! It's insane! What a mess! Personally, I'd like to set
Skype up where it won't even keep chat history, but yeah... I don't mind
getting text chats, just so that I can dump the history. Who wants a
thousand odd messages lingering around from 60, 90, whatever days ago!
OK, I know there are those who do, but I certainly don't. LOL!
Chris.
