Recently an awful lot of people have been having a problem with Skype on Windows where it would start to load and then would display that annoying message Skype has stopped working. This would happen with any screen reader installed on the computer. Well I've managed to find out why and how to resolve it. The reason its doing this is because of a recent Windows update where Microsoft have disabled things with embedded Internet explorer add-ones from running, such as Skype. To resolve this problem, do the following. 1. Open control panel and choose Programs and features. You can do this from the start menu if running XP Vista or 7 or Windows+X if your running Windows 8 2. Click the link which says view installed updates. 3. Press F3 to navigate to the search box and type the following update number. KB2977629 That's 2 9 7 7 6 2 9 I did it like this with spaces so that your screen reader wouldn't string it altogether. 4. Press the applications key and choose uninstall. When its uninstalled, you must restart your computer. Once your computer has restarted, can I suggest you go back into Windows update and hide it. To do this. 1. Go into control panel and choose Windows update. 2. If you need to click the link that says check for updates. 3. When it says 1 important update is available, press Enter. 4. In the list that appears highlight that 1 update and press the applications key. 5. Click hide update. I hope this message is useful for some of you. After you've uninstalled that update Skype should run normally again. With regards from Inamuddin with the Skype ID: charlsdarwin1 Friendship flourishes at the fountain of forgiveness.
