Multiple Skype Accounts on one PC

Topic

New Reply

I followed the instruction found on Skype Help to set up multiple Skype accounts on my WinXP Home SP3.. But, when I reached “ …On the bottom of the first page will be a button labelled Advanced… . Click this button and select Run with different credentials…”, the “Run with different credentials” check box was dimmed. What did I do wrong?

I don’t actually run any MS Software including MS OS but do you have separate user accounts for the XP login? I would assume this refers to separate users on XP rather than on individual software packages.

Hi herworth,

Thank you for your reply. I do have another Windows User accounts for the XP login.

I tried to find the answer on Skype’s forum. I saw people posting the similar question. Fortunately, by ignoring this procedure, I have set up multiple Skype accounts on one PC by the help from another Skype user.

It has something to do with the shortcut created by the installation of Skype. I can not verify my conclusion till next Skype upgrade.
