I reboot my laptop into safe mode with networking and my skype portable 6.20.0.104 works (i didn't turn off antivirus/firewall on safe mode). When i back to normal mode skype portable 6.20.0.104 not works but when i install it on other older laptop it works. Something block my skype portable.

I try to uninstall normal skype 7.36.0.101 because all problems started when i did it before. After i uninstall normal skype 7.36.0.101, my skype portable 6.20.0.104 works but when i install back my normal skype 7.36.0.101, then my skype portable 6.20.0.104 stop working.

), # ↑And when my skype portable 6.20.0.104 stop workin in last days on my laptop i go and install it in on my old laptop. And on my old laptop i can send offline messages but i don't know how i did it. I just itnslall skype portable and i copy folder with my skype archive. But at the beginning i had problems with passwords. I sign in on skype portable 7.17.0.101 and quit , then i try sign in to skype portable 6.20.0.104 but something was wrong with password, i typed password manually 2 or 3 times and it sign me in. After 2 days i still can send offline messages on my old laptop. I think it's all about confing.xml . If skype would support normal skype 6.20.0.104 i could easy send offline messages but this skype portable is more complicate but it is possible to do.

I just did some more investigation on the Skype-Setup.exe file and do some furhter tests. Now I want to share my findings on how to create a new portable version of Skype from version 8 on and even with an integrated update process. More details can be found on the stackoverflow page: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48825202/skype-portable-since-version-8 I've now created SkypePortable in PortableApps.com format, which can be found @ https://github.com/DoeWayne/SkypePortable

I don't understand what to do with this command, where type it. I have new script with the same folder where i created skype portable with old script, i have 3 folders: appdata, tools, versions, few shortcut to skype created by script and script, i don't have nothing more here.

), #On other machines, I am running Win 7 Ultimate, sp1, Skype ver. 7.4 and can log in, although there are constant nag messages asking me to upgrade. I think upgrade is a misnomer, since versions after 7.4 are stripped down with loss of controls from the older versions.
On a more recent OS install, Skype does not allow version 7.4 to login, saying I am using an outdated version and must download the most recent release.
I read your explanation as to how to make a portable version of Skype with a flash drive with great interest. It describes older versions of Skype being loaded onto a flash drive.
I am wondering if the same can be done with version 7.4?
In short, I want to continue using the older versions of Skype which provide greater information, control and functionality. Currently, with a new install of anything but the most recent (and dumbed-down) version of Skype, the old versions are not permitted to log in.
Many thanks,
Luke
