Skype, the iconic video calling app, is set to shut down within hours with users urged to save their data.
Users can switch to Microsoft Teams to continue using their login details and transfer contacts and chats.
To save Skype chat history and files, users need to sign in to the Export page, select the data to download, and follow the steps provided.
Skype will retire in May 2025, while Skype for Business will continue to operate for now. Microsoft has encouraged users to transition to Teams and provided steps to export data.
