It was always our best intention and we apologize if this have been an inconvenience to those of you not interested in using all the cool things Skype has to offer. Skype being part of Microsoft, our effort is to give Windows 10 users the best experience possible and that means that for those users that have a primary MSA set in their device they will be able to start communicating with their friends and loved ones for free and without having to go through the process of creating an account.
Is there any hope for those of us that wish to disable Skype from the integration with the new Outlook Mail all together? I've written to anybody that would listen for months now and these are the only two responses I've received: I can understand any user would be happy with this change, and congratulations! I am happy for you.
Paul, this is great if you actually use Skype. (That means it works across browsers and PCs, too.) I believe that this change is persistent (to your account) and that changing it once will change it across multiple Microsoft sites, but I’m waiting to hear back. You’ll see a new option here, called “Sound: Turn notification sounds on or off.” Just turn ’em off. In the Settings pane that appears, select Notifications (it’s the default). To disable Skype notification sounds, open or OneDrive in your web browser, click the Skype button at the top (the one with a messaging-type icon), and then click the Settings cog at the bottom. If that thing was open all day, it would drive me crazy. But it leads to a bigger problem: I also cannot use as my primarily email address as a result, too, because I prefer to use web clients. What that means to me is that I cannot leave, OneDrive and other Microsoft websites open in browser tabs because every time someone converses with me, the web browser will emit a loud “blatt” notification. But when Microsoft added the latest, plug-in-free version of its Skype pane to, and its other websites, it left off a crucial feature: The inability to disable Skype notifications.
I turn off Skype notification sounds everywhere because I find them superfluous and annoying. We’ll they’ve fixed that, and in doing so, they may have just saved my sanity as well. For the past few months, I’ve complained about the inability to disable Skype notification sounds in Microsoft’s websites.
