Skype<\/b> is a wonderful service enabling loved ones to communicate from far off distances.\u00a0<\/span>It helps users to chat, call and share files at no cost! Millions of users daily use Skype for their Personal or Business purposes. Even though there is a desktop application for\u00a0<\/span>Skype, Microsoft has launched a web-based messaging platform at <\/span>web.skype.com<\/b>. It is particularly very helpful for those people who can\u2019t install the desktop application due to any reason.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Recently, the web.skype was in the news for a bug which crashes the web.skype window or the entire browser during the messaging sessions. If you are a regular web.skype user, you may have also experienced it. And like we always do, we\u2019ve investigated the problem and come up with some remedies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beware of web junk creating a big headache for you, simply due to the fact that you haven’t been sweeping it away. Once the browser gets\u00a0filled up with junk in bulk quantities, it can lead to a wide array of outcomes. So its highly recommended you keep cleaning up the junk at regular intervals.<\/p>\n

Update\u00a0the Browser<\/b><\/h3>\n

Web.Skype is a web-based API, which may demand the latest version of the browser to deliver the right results and function normally. An outdated browser version may create conflicts with the latest skype API ultimately resulting in a crash. To update your browser, follow the steps given below.<\/span><\/p>\n

Google Chrome<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open Chrome.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Click on the <\/span>Menu<\/b> icon on the upper-right corner of the screen.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Point to the <\/span>Help<\/b> option and then select <\/span>About Google Chrome<\/b>.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Now Chrome will automatically check for updates and provide you with an option to update it, if an update is available.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Mozilla Firefox<\/b><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Open Firefox<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Click on the <\/span>Menu<\/b> button on the upper-right corner of the screen.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. From the menu that appears, click <\/span>Open Help Menu <\/b>(a question mark button) at the bottom.<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Select <\/span>About Firefox<\/b>.<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. Firefox will automatically check for updates and start downloading it if it\u2019s available.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Safari<\/b><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Open <\/span>Menu<\/b> and choose the <\/span>App Store<\/b> option.<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. Click the <\/span>Updates<\/b> button on the toolbar.<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. Find <\/span>Safari <\/b>and then click <\/span>Update<\/b>.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        This way you can update your browser. If your browser is different from the above-mentioned ones, just do a Google search on how to update it.<\/span><\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Check for Conflicting Modules<\/b><\/h3>\n

        Plugins or extensions installed in your browser may create conflicts with the web applications. So checking them may fix the web.skype crash issue. To check the conflicting modules in Chrome, follow the steps given below.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Type \u201c<\/span>chrome:\/\/conflicts<\/b>\u201d in the address bar and then press <\/span>Enter<\/b>.<\/span><\/li>\n
        2. If any conflicts are found, conflicting modules and the application which caused the conflict both will be shown prominently.<\/span><\/li>\n
        3. Uninstall the conflicting application from the Control Panel or the conflicting extension(s) from the browser.<\/span><\/li>\n
        4. Repeat step # 1. If you get the <\/span>No conflicts detected<\/b> message, it means no more conflicts are there.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Beware of the \u201chttp:\/\/:\u201d message<\/b><\/h3>\n

          Many Skype desktop application and web.skype users have complained that ONLY sending the characters <\/span>http:\/\/:<\/b> in chat causes skype to either completely crash or be unresponsive. Even though skype claims it has fixed this problem, some users are still experiencing it. So try to avoid sending only the <\/span>http:\/\/:<\/b> characters in your Chat sessions without any URL.<\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          Go For the Skype Desktop Application<\/b><\/h3>\n

          If any of the above methods did not help you fix the web.skype crashing issue, go for the desktop application of the skype. You can download the skype desktop application from<\/span> their website<\/span><\/a>, or you could also install it on your Smartphones, Tablets or TV. It is more stable than the web version of skype as it is directly accessed from your device instead of the internet.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
