Hello everyone Does anyone know of any way to export a Skype conversation to e.g. a text file? I'm using Skype 8 on Windows 7. Googling for this gets me lots of advice for Skype 8 on Windows 10, which apparently has a message export feature, but I can't find such a feature on Skype 8 on Windows 7. It appears that the messages are not stored on my own computer at all. When I use the web-based Skype, all of my conversations load instantly, so I guess they're stored online somewher...

It appears that the messages are not stored on my own computer at all. When I use the web-based Skype, all of my conversations load instantly, so I guess they're stored online somewhere. One can select a small number of messages one by one with a mouse and click a "copy" button, but I have over 1000 messages in the thread that I want to copy. Any ideas? Thanks ▲ Collapse | | | | |

I have already visited all of them before I posted here. 1. This video relates to Skype 7. 2. This video does not (despite its title) explain how to export messages (only to migrate them).

I have a Windows 8 PC which I presume works pretty like Windows 7, and I am forced to use this unfortunate version 8 of Skype, too, like everyone![](https://cfcdn.proz.com/images/bb/smiles/icon_frown.gif) Anyway, meaning to look up the path for you, I discovered much to my astonishment a folder which I never saw before (I think it came with the new Skype version). The path is: users/your name/skype-export/your Skype name. There you should find all your conversations in .html ...

I have not checked in detail but hope this solves your problem. ▲ Collapse | | | Samuel Murray Netherlands Local time: 19:24 Member (2006) English to Afrikaans + ... TOPIC STARTER

Thanks, I have that as well, but that folder contains only the conversations from Skype 7. In my case, it contains only two conversations from way, way back when. | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Export Skype conversation Anycount & Translation Office 3000 | Translation Office 3000
