#Skype tools options general audio settings windows
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Some of us are just smarter than you give us credit for and don't appreciate being treated like 8 year olds. I need something I can work with, not something that makes ME work withing ITs parameters. I can't wait until I am finished having to use this product and then Now Microsoft has just done away with any chance to set those in Skype. SO how is thatĪll the online instructions say to go to "Tools>Options>General>Video Settings" but that must be on older versions. And, as you mentioned correctly, that test resets itself to "off" as soon as you close the box. Upon clicking to Options, you will be brought to the General Settings tab. On the menu, click Options to open your Skype settings. I mean, you can't do anything to test it while the Settings box is open anyway. To do so, once logged into your Skype profile, click on Tools, which is at the top-left side of the Skype screen a drop-down menu will appear. I was only using this product because a company was requiring me to do so.Ĭan anyone actually share instructions for THIS version for testing the Skype videocam? I went to the and used the search function for "Tools button" "tools" or "Tools icon". I called Microsoft, they will not give support on the phone.

But every time I go to Settings>test video, and turn that button to ON, and click out of settings, that test video setting is disabled when I go back I have my privacy settings to allow Skype to use my camera and microphone. There is no TOOLS button in this version of Skype i just downloaded from the Windows store.ģ. All online instructions say in order to test your webcam video for Skype, click the TOOLS button in Skype. Just downloaded skype from the Microsoft store for WINDOWS 10.Ģ.
