Ubuntu – Unable to see Recent Chats in skype 4.3

skype

After upgrading to latest version (4.3.0.37) the skype no longer showing Recent chats. It is showing a small black box as shown in the bellow pic instead of chat list.

enter image description here

If I downgrade the version, I am not able to login Skype. How to make "Recent Chats" to show recent chat history?

Best Answer

Try this:

  • Quit skype
  • Move away the ~/.Skype folder
  • Start skype without the previous history.

That worked for me, at least first. However, the problem with the disappeared Recent chats came back, so I had to redo the above...

It seems like a bug in the new skype client.
