      There are few products I hate more than Skype, but now when I need it, it doesn't work. There appears to be no means of resetting a password. If you choose their reset password option it makes you reset an unrelated password and nothing changes in Skype. Is it possible to keep using Skype or is it just completely broken now?

        @scottalanmiller Try resetting the password to your linked Microsoft account (if you have one).

          Then is why I refused to link my accounts when services buy each other. Something always goes wrong.

            @JaredBusch YMMV. My experience has been good.

              I did. Instead of resetting Skype it just broke my Microsoft account. Now both don't work.

                No kidding. I'll never trust that again. I had no idea that it was linked till it did this.

                  I'm giving up on Skype. I'm just giving up my account. I've had scottalanmiller there since Skype was brand new. But I've seldom been as unhappy with a service that I kept around as much as Skype. I'm kind of happy to be done with it. I won't miss that at all. Anyone who only contacts me there is just out of luck.
