      Hello!
      Unfortunately, this feature is not supported in Skype 8.

      I recommend you to send feedback to developers and ask them to implement this feature in the new Skype. Please read here how to do it.

    Hi Microsoft,

    This version of Skype was just downloaded about several hours ago.

    It is sad to report that this version is still not compatible with Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 15. I have brought this to the attention of Skype on at least 6 occasions and have spoken to Microsoft officials.

    Please give me a call as to when these 2 programs will be compatible at 3***9

      The only thing you can do is to delete conversations (check this for details: How to delete conversation in Skype 8).

    Hello,
    How do I search in conversation on Skype version 8.28.0.41?
    On the previous versions, I was simply using CTRL+F and it worked.
    Not anymore unfortunately.

    Thank you!
